Justice is done.
Maccabi Tel Aviv saw an easy victory slip through their hands due to one mistake and bad refereeing decisions, but Mladen Krastić's team showed great character tonight (Saturday) against Hapoel Jerusalem and in added time scored two goals that brought them a justified 1: 3 victory and the place the third.
Throughout most of the game, there was one team on the grass and that was Maccabi Tel Aviv. Unnecessary heart.
A mistake by Daniel Peretz who reacted late to the ball of substitute Idan Shemesh led to Jerusalem's equalizer.
Then Aviad Shiloah pulled out a second yellow to give Hozaz, after the first yellow did not have to be pulled out at all and it looked like the game would turn upside down.

But even with 10 players, Maccabi showed superiority and a bombshell of Gabi Kanikovsky and another goal by substitute Ido Sha'ar arranged 3 points for Mladen Krastich and as mentioned the third place at the expense of Hapoel Tel Aviv. Hapoel Jerusalem will remain another round in 12th place just a point away .
