Not an easy blow to Hapoel Hadera. Muhammad Osman, who has become one of Menachem Koretzky’s significant anchors in the link this season, received his sentence today (Wednesday) in the Football Association’s court – three games off the pitches.
As you may recall, Osman was prosecuted following what happened at the end of the game against Hapoel Beer Sheva. The Nigerian midfielder was sent off by referee Gal Leibowitz deep within extra time and in response pushed him, in what led to the player being prosecuted. Judge Giora Landau acquitted the player of “bodily injury to the referee”, but was sent off for three games.
In her room, it will be recalled, they expressed anger towards Osman for acting irresponsibly. Following the penalty, he will miss the league games against Hapoel Jerusalem and Maccabi Netanya, while also the meeting against Bnei Sakhnin in the eighth stage of the State Cup final.
