The Premier League table is so tight that even the leader of the National League, City of Tiberias, went up against Beitar Jerusalem to prove that the level differences are not that big.
And that's exactly what happened on the grass.
Israel has a league of three teams and all the rest, including the top of the second league, is like tossing a coin.
Little Tiberias dragged Beitar Jerusalem to a penalty shootout after 120 minutes (1:1 at the end of overtime).
Jordan Shua made a difficult 0:1 with a free kick (66), but Ofir Mizrahi, who has been through a lot in the Premier League and is in Tiberias mainly to keep Shabbat, equalized with a penalty (80).
Avishai Cohen was sent off during the penalty, but it felt like Tiberias was looking for the penalties.
At the end of the game we will be dragged there, because if it's a tree or a piece, then let it be from the white spot.
Beitar had a lot of luck in penalties. After 12 kicks, Idan Golan's miss came and Teresa Toma sent Beitar to the quarterfinals.
