After seven consecutive home losses and when she is deep in the last place leading to relegation, Maccabi Rishon Lezion achieved an important victory tonight (Wednesday) when they defeated Hapoel Haifa 93: 101 to the call of "Rishon will not come down" from the stands.
Five players scored in double digits scored for Dror Cohen, who will host Hapoel Tel Aviv on Sunday and will try to take advantage of the effects of the Cup final that will surely be with the Reds.

Precisely after three consecutive victories that raised them to fourth place in the table, the Reds from Carmel presented a sluggish game almost throughout the stages of the game.
Gregory Vargas (20) and Kadim Allen (18) did their thing, but this time the defense, the strong side of Haifa, did not function.
On Sunday, Hapoel Haifa will host Bnei Herzliya, the second participant in the cup final.
