Encouraged by the victory, the Yellows set their sights on third place, which would lead to the UEFA Cup. To get there, they had to win at Olympia Stadium in Munich.  Felix Magath's team was five times better than the Maccabi Tel Aviv players, who found solace only in Baruch Dego’s one goal. Claudio Pizarro (12'), Hasan Slihamidzic (37') and defender Torsten Frings (44') sealed the deal even before halftime. After Baruch Dego's penalty kick into legendary goalkeeper Olvier Kahn's net at the 56th minute, Roy Makaay, who scored in Ramat Gan, contributed another pair of his own (71', 80')  and set the final score of the game.
