Jul 27, 2026 | Football | 0 comments

Maccabi Netanya defeated Hapoel Jerusalem 3-1 as starlet Yarin Abuheitzeira scored his first professional goal in the victory. Bassam Zarora opened the scoring for the diamond city squad but Israel Dappa found the equalizer soon thereafter, however, Oz Bilu also scored to give Roni Levy’s team a 2-1 advantage at the break. But the main event was yet to come as Abuheitzeira, the son of former star striker Shimon Abuheitzeira, at just 15 years of age scored a stunner of a strike on a break to close out the win for Netanya.

Ironi Tiberias downed Bnei Sakhnin 2-1 as a pair of second half goals by Ron Unger and Mansour Badjie cancelled out Eyad Abu Abid’s first half marker to help the Kineret based team to the victory.

Hapoel blanked Maccabi 1-0 in the Petach Tikva Derby as Noam Cohen’s 89th minute screamer from the top of the box handed Omer Peretz the 3-points against their city rivals.
