Recap of Maccabi Haifa's 1:4 victory over Maccabi Netanya (Sport1)

Maccabi Netanya

Maccabi Netanya will host Maccabi Haifa tomorrow (Monday, 20:30) in a game that could also be the eve of the Greens' coronation. In recent days there has been a real frenzy surrounding the tickets for the game, with Maccabi Netanya's management even revocating a number of subscriptions from its fans, who were caught after selling the tickets to Maccabi Haifa fans.

Netanya attributes great importance to the game, also because of the close battle for fourth place and especially ahead of the State Cup final that will be held next Tuesday, and everyone hopes to arrive in good spirits for this game.

Patrick Twomassi, who was hospitalized for a series of tests due to abdominal pain, was released from the hospital, believed to be the cause of the abdominal pain being spicy food that the Ghanaian ate two days ago and apparently negatively affected him. At this stage, it appears that he will get a rest, but the final decision will not be made until tomorrow. The one who should rest is Boris Eno, who is in danger of yellows for the final and the team will not want to risk him. The squad will also be missing the injured Liran Rothman, Ahmed Salman and goalkeeper Tomer Sarfati, who took off with the youth team for the World Cup in Argentina.

Maccabi Haifa

For the second time in two weeks, Maccabi Haifa will come into the game knowing that a win equals a championship. The Greens will arrive in Netanya with a missing squad, with Ali Mohammed, Mavis Chibota and Abdoulaye Seck absent from the penalties they received following the Turner incident, and Daniel Sundgren and Omar Atzili serving suspension sentences for yellow cards.

Due to the shortcomings, it is possible that Behar will have a three-brake setup and then Dolev Haziza will play on the entire right line. In that case, Frenzy Pierrot and Dean David will collaborate in attack and Dia Seba and Charon Sherry will play in midfield along with Mohammed Abu Fani. "The connections don't matter, in the end it's one game from the championship and whoever plays has to bring the win and the championship," the team said.
