After nine rounds in the league, Hapoel Haifa is in 11th place in the table, when it scored only 8 points - and won only once.
This is not how coach Nir Klinger and owner Yoav Katz expected the team in which a lot of money was invested for the season to look.
Already in the 5th minute of the game, the brakeman Nisso Capiluto was injured in a fight for a high ball in the area and left the field on a stretcher after being treated by the medical team.
Later in the half, Hapoel Haifa's lead goal was disallowed.
Alon Turgeman received a ball in the box and kicked, when Yossi Ginzburg's stop fell at the feet of Gal Aral who scored.
The lineman waved the flag to Turgeman's gap while receiving the ball.

In the 82nd minute, Nes Ziona took a surprising lead.
Berkovich's winning replacement.
Uri Megbo lifted another ball into the box and found Ari Mora who came up just three minutes before, and the striker hit the net.
In the end, it's a big win for the Oranges, who temporarily rise above the red line and achieve their second win of the season, and their third game in a row without a loss.
