The cup has its own rules, as well as its own emotions. At the end of the match between MS. Ashdod Lahapoel Petah Tikva today (Tuesday), in which the southerners won 2:4, had to separate Tom Ben Zaken and Idan Vared.
In the 68th minute, in a 2:2 situation, Ben Zaken committed a particularly serious foul on Vared and was sent off after Ethan Shmulevich checked with VAR. Watch the Bangan incident in the player above >>>
Vared himself commented on this at the end: “Everything is fine, we’ve been friends for years and it was in the heat of the moment. I was sure it was 100% red and I was stressed, but it’s not personal. Tom is an excellent player and a good friend of mine, I love him and everything is fine.”
Ward summed up the game: “Our mistakes, we were there the whole game. 2:2 and they are with ten players, I’m proud of all of them anyway. I’m happy with the transition, I live from football and I’m not happy if I don’t play. I came to be a factor, I haven’t scored in a long time. Here are good guys, we’ll rest and get it right, we’ll move to Acre in the second.”
