After Maccabi Haifa turned to the association today (Sunday), Hapoel Beer Sheva turned to the football association with a demand not to allow the semi-finals of the cup between Maccabi and Hapoel Haifa in Sami Ofer.
In Be’er Sheva, it is claimed that in such a situation, in which the Haifa semi-final will be transferred to Sami Ofer, three teams in the semi-finals of the State Cup will be at home. Maccabi Tel Aviv, which will host Alona Barkat’s team in Bloomfield, and the two Haifa women who will play on their home field. “This is a sporting advantage and in principle unequal,” said a source in the team.
Later, after the demand to leave the Haifa derby in Bloomfield, the Reds from the Negev submitted a request to transfer their Cup semi-final match against Maccabi Tel Aviv to Teddy Stadium.
