The Maccabi midfield was giving Dor Peretz and Eran Zahavi opportunities, with Gabi Kanichowsky creating his own shots, they were unable to convert early on. While Luka \u0160tor and Amir Altori did not shy away from attacking for Petah Tikva, Ofir Davidzada, Raz Shlomo and Tyrese Asante made sure that Maccabi\u2019s keeper Roi Mishpati was not seriously threatened. <\/p>\n<p>Kanichowsky finally broke through for Maccabi in the 30th minute with a beautiful left-foot strike inside the box. Shortly after the goal scorer went to ground after a challenge from Tamir Glazer which earned the latter a yellow card. Kanichowsky continued to play, but he did not look comfortable. This didn\u2019t hamper the visitors\u2019 offense though, with Layous made it 2-0 after 41 minutes when he put the ball in the back of the net from a Davida pass inside the box. \u017darko Lazetic felt the need to replace Kanichowsky shortly before the break due to an injury, with Ido Shahar coming onto the pitch just prior to the halftime break.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_118045\" style=\"width: 2010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-118045\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118045\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/MTA_202409010554176d16886ded6c2e1f1823a1db1fec0619-1080x720.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-118045\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gaby Kanichowsky &#8211; Photo credit: Maccabi Tel Aviv<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nThe hosts made two changes at halftime, with Altori and Ariel Lugasi going off for Idan Vered and Mohammed Hindy.

Then in the 60th minute Liran Hazan hit the top of the crossbar and the home side was still left without a goal. Then only a few minutes later Petah Tikvah attached again, with Liran Hazan making Mishpati work to save the ball and again avoid conceding. <\/p>\n<p>For all of Petah Tikva\u2019s attacking, it was Maccabi who scored the first goal of the second half, with Raz Shlomo scoring off a corner in the 65th minute. With a 3-0 lead, Lazetic changed up his attack with Henry Addo and Henry Addo replacing Eran Zahavi and Hisham Layous in the 67th minute, then he made his last two substitutions with Idan Nachmias and Elad Madmon replacing Sagiv Jehezkel and Dor Peretz.
