From week to week the struggle against decline is only becoming much more tense and dramatic.
Hapoel Jerusalem defeated Hapoel Haifa 1: 2 tonight (Sunday), and qualified above the red line, to which Maccabi Petah Tikva relegated.
Ziv Arieh's team did start with a quick goal by William Agada, but the first half was a priority for the host, who reached a number of good situations, and in one of them Hanan Maman managed to score the equalizer with a half-kick to the crossbar and the net.
Hapoel Haifa was worth another goal in that half but could not get it.

And just as the game began, so did the second half, when less than ten minutes from the start, Ofek Bitton once again managed to give his team the advantage, which was maintained until the final whistle and gave the Jerusalemites plenty of air to breathe in the underground struggles.
