An excellent second half for Maccabi Tel Aviv was enough to gain a 3-0 victory over HaPoel Ramat Gan
Maccabi Tel Aviv hosted HaPoel Ramat Gan at HaMoshava Stadium for two different halves at the end of which the scoreboard displayed a score of 3-1 for the yellow team. An anemic first half for both teams did not disclose anything toward the second half. Eliran Atar started the second half with a storm, making two goals in the first three minutes. Radi bombarded with the third goal before Tibi made his, a goal that did not change the fact that the yellow team will be coming to next week's derby in good spirits and with three more points.
The game started quite slowly and the first kick toward one of the goals came from a former Maccabi Tel Aviv Player, Sidibe, which went straight into Eniema's arms. On the other end of the field, Micha gave Arkin the opportunity to catch the ball and, in Minute 33, Ramat Gan's goalkeeper demonstrated that he is still sharp. The best opportunity of the first half was that of Gonzalo Garcia, who received a pass from Dabour, but was unable to defeat Arkin. No special plays were seen at the end of the first 45 minutes and the teams went to halftime without any goals.
Maccabi Tel Aviv came back from the locker rooms with a storm and after just five minutes, the scoreboard displayed 2-0. The first move was that of Gonzalo Garcia, who made an excellent pass, and of Eliran Atar, who calmly finished the maneuver with the goalkeeper. One minute later, Atar received a depth ball, switched to his right foot and kicked a sharp and flat ball into the corner. The goals did not end there, in Minute 65, Yoav Ziv elevated the ball to Radi, who let it bounce on the green before being catapulted into Arkin's high corner. Four minutes later, a corner ball for the guests led to a self-goal by Tibi, setting the score at 3-1 for Maccabi Tel Aviv, giving it its third consecutive win.
