Vandalism of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans at the stadium in Haifa (Maccabi Haifa)
Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel Aviv continue to blame each other following the incidents between the fan camps on Monday night at a match between the teams. Videos posted from the stands show Maccabi Haifa fans throwing dozens of flares in the direction of the stand populated by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, with only the partition net placed between the stands preventing injuries.
Now the Greens are releasing more videos, which they claim prove that those who started the provocation were Maccabi Tel Aviv fans. "It's important to present the full picture. A moment before passing judgment, writing against one side, it is appropriate to see the full film, who started and who shot at whom," Maccabi Haifa said, showing a video (watch the player above) that "allows you to see with certainty who started the avocado throwing."

Maccabi Tel Aviv threatened that following the events, yellow fans would not attend the next meeting between the teams if there was no complete separation between the fan camps. "Before threatening not to withdraw tickets, it is appropriate to confront reality," responded Maccabi Haifa, who claim that the vandalism of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans in the stands amounted to 170 seats being displaced - "a new record in the stadium".
"The armrests you see in the pictures were thrown at Maccabi Haifa fans and stopped by the net. Horrifying!" they said in Haifa.
