Hapoel Tel Aviv fans lit several candles in the stands about two minutes from the start of the game against Maccabi in the second game in the quarterfinals of the playoffs that is taking place at this time (0: 1 for the Yellows in the series).
Following the lighting of the torches and the scattering of smoke in the air, the referee decided to stop the game for a few minutes.
The group may be punished in court for lighting the torches, if indeed this is contrary to the regulations.
Gil Benny and Jacoben Brown who had trouble breathing the smoke came out of the hall to breathe clean air.
