Bnei Yehuda shocked Beitar Jerusalem 3-1 in the capital city as Dor Jan scored a pair of late injury time goals to snatch the win. Gaeten Varenne gave the hosts a 1-0 lead in the 24th minute when he took a tremendous through ball by Levi Garcia and beat keeper Emilias Zoubas with a scorcher to the left hand corner from 18 meters. However, the tide began to turn in the 50th minute when Antoine Conte was issued his second yellow for a foul on Dor Jan and was sent off leaving Roni Levy’s side with ten men for the balance of the contest. Avishay Cohen found Jan in the 90th minute as he beat a helpless Itamar Nitzan to give Elisha Levy’s squad the advantage and then a minute later Jan added an insurance marker off a Amit Zaneti cross to seal up a 3-1 victory.

Hapoel Beer Sheva hosted Maccabi Tel Aviv to a 1-1 draw at Turner Stadium at the Southern capital. The yellow-and-blue opened the scoring in the second half when Chico Ofoedu cleanly beat Reds keeper Ernestas Setkus in the 52nd minute but a quarter hour later Niv Zrihen took advantage of a Maccabi miscue in the box to split the points.

Hapoel Kfar Saba stunned Maccabi Haifa 1-0 at Sammy Ofer Stadium thanks to an Omer Fadida goal deep into stoppage time. After playing over 95 minutes of scoreless soccer, Fadida took the ball down the right side, cut into the box and sliced the ball past a helpless Josh Cohen to give the Kfar Saba the surprise win and 3-points.

Hapoel Hadera defeated Sektzia Nes Tziona 1-0 at the Netanya Stadium as Eliel Peretz knocked in an 80th minute rebound to give the hosts 3 points. Hadera thought that they had taken the lead right before halftime but the Virtual Assistant Referee nullified the strike. However, Peretz took advantage of Lucio’s missed header in the box to find the back of the goal and notch the victory for Hadera.

Hapoel Haifa downed Hapoel Tel Aviv 1-0 at Bloomfield Stadium on a 10th minute strike by Jakub Sylvestr. Dor Malul and Gidi Kanuk combined to begin Haifa’s first attack of the contest and Sylvestr finished it off by beating Yoav Gerafi for the lone goal of the game. With the victory, Hapoel Haifa put themselves in position for a chance at a Championship play-off spot and just one point behind Hapoel Tel Aviv in the standings.

Kiryat Shemona drew 1-1 at Hapoel Raanana as each side took a point at the Moshava Stadium. Yoav Tomer gave the hosts a 1-0 lead in the 33rd minute but Mohamed Shaker found the late equalizer in the 81st minute.
