Aviv Avraham and Chibuta in the struggle (Radad Jabara)
In the management of the football leagues and the football association, they made a decision starting next season to return the quarter-final matches of the state cup to the format of only one game instead of the two games (home and away) that are currently there.
The whole beauty of the cup games is the possibility for the teams to surprise in the games, and when there is a rematch it reduces the chances and takes all the sting out of the cup games. As part of the close cooperation between the incoming chairman of the football association, Shino Zoertz, and the chairman of the football leagues administration, the two have already made a decision regarding the cup games.
Talks to implement the move began in front of the gambling board, which is why they held another cup match because of the commercial interest. The administration and the association will find a solution with the gambling council to solve this problem. From the point of view of football fans, this will be important news, that the cup matches will once again return to the celebration at the quarter-final stage.
