In the shadow of the rains, the 21st round of League A South kicked off today (Friday). The focus was on the intriguing game between Shimshon Kfar Qassem and Yuval Naim and Maccabi Kabilio Jaffa with Eran Levy, who left one point at home after a dramatic goal with a free kick in the last seconds of the game. 2: 2 at the end in Kfar Qassem. Jeremiah Holon, whose game started late, was sure that it would win, but Ben Algarbeli from Eilat made it 1: 1 in the 93rd minute. The big winner from the stumble of the three teams that follow is Hapoel Kfar Shalem, which easily defeated Urbani Kassifa 0: 4. Herzliya is back to winning after seven games, with Hapoel Ashkelon losing 16 this season.
Samson Kfar Qassem – Maccabi Kabilio Jaffa 2: 2
Is there another winner like him? Eran Levy set the result of the game, after a dramatic goal just after Meir Ohayon scored an unfortunate own goal and put Samson Kfar Qassem in the lead. There is a lot of talk about this game, which brought with it four goals, a draw and a disappointment among the two clubs that provided Hapoel Kfar Shalem with an advantage at the top of the table. Ohad Edelstein scored the first goal of the game in favor of Kfar Qassem, Dovev Gabay restored faith in the crowd and his team in the 69th minute of the game and in the final minutes, as mentioned, an own goal and Eran Levy closed the matter in 2: 2.
Hapoel Kfar Shalem – Urban Kassifa 0: 4
When you are alone at the summit, lonely, you are actually happy with joy. While Jeremiah Holon, Maccabi Kabilio Jaffa and Kfar Shalem scored only one point, Hapoel Kfar Shalem recorded a big victory thanks to goals from Yair Shpongin (pair), Eli Elbaz and Edgi Hayford. True, the gap at the top has not grown to a double-digit number, but even a gap of only two points can affect the continuation of the season. In Kuseife they will look for points elsewhere, against teams in “her league”.
M.K. Jeremiah Holon – Bnei Eilat 1: 1
Eli Chen almost determined the outcome of the game, but the visitors had other plans, when Ben Algarbeli equalized in the 93rd minute. Eilat is still one of the teams that are at the bottom of the table, when they are fighting for their lives and hope, by chance, in some way, to stay in the league.
Samson Tel Aviv – Maccabi Herzliya 2: 1
Herzliya needed it. A victory so important for a team from Sharon, that in its last seven games it has not tasted victory and has slipped to the bottom of the league. Goals by Anar Schechter and Osheri Eshel did the job. In Samson Tel Aviv, they left the game with a sour taste, after leading from a goal by Yarin Mugrabi. With such an ability, things must change at the club.
Dimona Sports Club – Maccabi Yavne 1: 0
Dimona is angry. Continue to get angry, or rather. How is it possible that a club with a budget of more than NIS 2.5 million does not display impressive ability on the lawn? A single goal by Avi Yosef in the 78th minute closed the matter in favor of Yavne. Joseph, has returned from a long-term injury and is unhappy with him winning the game.
Hapoel Ashkelon – Maccabi Shaarim 2: 0
A pair of goals by Idan Vaknin set up 0: 2 for Maccabi Shaarim, which found a comfortable opponent for the weekend. Ashkelon, which seems to have come to terms with the fact that the league was relegated this season, at a low that has not been seen for years. At two goals, of course, are pleased with the game and the win, which leaves them a chance to sneak into the top playoffs at the end of the season.
Hapoel Marmorek – Hapoel Area 1: 1
Equal distribution of points, even though Azor was left with ten players from the 22nd minute. Tomer Ben Haim gave Azor an early lead (22), but a goal by Dor Alberman (61) made it 1: 1 and closed the story in Weisgal, Rehovot. The expectation was much higher than Marmorek. The area can be proud of the players, who scored an important point against one of the best teams in the league.
Hapoel Bnei Lod – Betar Nordia Jerusalem 1: 1
At Betar Nordia Jerusalem we missed a great opportunity to get out of the mud, but Tal Sarig’s goal in the 60th minute determined the outcome of the game. Many talked about the game before it opened. Nordia led the match from Matan Schwartz’s goal, but just was not enough for her. If it’s the ability of both of them, the situation is not good at all.
