Dramatic Point-Sharing in the Capital of the Negev: Own Goal, Moskovich, and Dagim on the Scoresheet
The U-19 team visited Be'er Sheva for Matchday 7 of the U-19 Premier League.
In the 10th minute, right-back Shai Vaksman played a through ball to Yotam Kalfa, who whipped a cross into the center; the ball deflected off a Be'er Sheva defender and into the net. Seven minutes later, Be'er Sheva leveled the score with a strike from outside the box that took a wind-assisted deflection past the keeper. In the 74th minute, Be'er Sheva turned the game around to take the lead - but Hapoel refused to back down.
With seven minutes remaining on the clock, Alon Moskovich intercepted the ball in midfield, drove forward, and unleashed a shot from outside the box into the bottom-left corner - 2-2. Deep into stoppage time, Be'er Sheva restored their lead, but once again Hapoel fought back: Avi Dagim collected the ball on the edge of the area, cut inside from right to left, and smashed home the dramatic 3-3 equalizer.
Asaf Gerenstein's squad sits in third place in the league table with 14 points out of a possible 21. This coming Saturday, they host Hapoel Ra'anana at Bat Yam Stadium, with kickoff set for 11:50.
Hapoel's Lineup: Ynal Bazdog, Shai Vaksman, Guy Eligolsvilli, Noam Nona, Ofek Chiproot, Ori Meir, Yonatan Ben Shimon (Avi Dagim, 67'), Yotam Kalfa (Alon Moskovich, 73'), Ilay Malihi (Noam George, 82'), Tazavo Melese (Omer Fridman, 82'), and Omri Levy (Fuad Ghnayem, 67').
