Wow: a huge drama at Menora Mivtachim Hall and at the end of it Hapoel Tel Aviv defeated Maccabi 82:83 in a derby tonight (Sunday) and secured a place in the quarterfinals of the State Cup.
So far the Yellows have managed to neutralize the crisis in the Euroleague and at least win their home games in the league, but this time it was already too much.
Maccabi's attacking game is one of the most confused and worst we have seen in many years.
Everything is improvised and unplanned, everything goes hard.
The celebrations of the Reds on the parquet in the hall for minutes Maccabi people will have a hard time forgetting for a long time.
Hapoel, for its part, can be encouraged by a good game in the mid-season that it has been going through so far.
Even when she fell behind in the last quarter she knew how to come back with a 0:11 run.
James Young for whom there have been shortcomings recently has provided a tremendous game with 26 points, including 4 from 10 to 3.
Maccabi also had an opportunity to compare and send the game to extra time.
She of course went once again to Scotty Wilbkin who missed twice.

The close and fascinating game was clouded by the behavior of some Hapoel Tel Aviv fans who threw poles, drinking glasses and many objects in the direction of the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans' offer and even hit some of them and threw objects at the parquet.
Lone fans were even arrested by police and security forces at the hall.
Following the hard marketing work of the League Administration staff over the past year or two the league games have been broadcast in many countries around the world.
The derby match was broadcast in the United States, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Slovenia, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Macedonia and Switzerland.
