Summary of Maccabi Tel Aviv's 0:5 win over Bnei Sakhnin in the round of 16 of the State Cup (Sport 1)
Maccabi Tel Aviv will return to practice tonight (Tuesday) after a day of rest and will actually begin preparations for the game against Beitar Jerusalem in six days. The team's fans are in a frenzy for the match at Teddy and as of last night over 5,000 tickets have already been sold to Maccabi Tel Aviv fans. The club hopes to see tonight in training Oskar Gloch, who was absent on Saturday from the match against MS Ashdod due to illness.
But alongside the professional aspect and the preparations for the match against Beitar Jerusalem, the club is working in all departments in preparation for the hearing tomorrow at the Football Association's tribunal following the racist calls to Taleb Tuatecha in the cup match against Bnei Sakhnin a week ago. In fact, the team has submitted a request to postpone the hearing until next week. If the postponement is accepted And the discussion will indeed take place next week, most likely the team will not want the punishment that will be determined in the game against Maccabi Haifa, because the sale of tickets will have already started at this stage. The reason for the request is that the team needs more time to continue and finish the filing of lawsuits against those caught in the incident. The team explained that they want to come to court after exhausting the investigation and filing the lawsuits.
At the same time, the club is preparing itself for the discussion in which Maccabi Tel Aviv may receive a suspended sentence imposed on it and play the season's game against Maccabi Haifa in a radius outside of Bloomfield.
Maccabi Tel Aviv will present in court how they acted to locate the few fans who verbally attacked Tuatecha, caught them and permanently revoked their subscriptions.

The club also intends to sue the fans and relevant documents will be presented in court.
Maccabi Tel Aviv will claim that it was a handful of fans, as stated in the referee's report, and that the team's players rushed to run towards Tuatecha, hug him and signal to the crowd to stop their behavior. In addition to this, the team will show the correspondence of the fans who supported Tuatecha and even the video clip from last Saturday at the end of Sakhnin's game , in which the left defender says that he received reinforcements from the team's fans who did not agree with the behavior of those 20 who yelled at him.
The team is convinced that the suspended sentence will not be applied due to all these circumstances and that the team will suffer a financial penalty, which it will claim from those fans who were located.
