Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv recorded another victory this afternoon at Bloomfield Stadium, beating Hapoel Jerusalem 3-1 as part of Matchday 23 of the Winner League. A brace for Toriel.

Hapoel arrived this afternoon at a Bloomfield Stadium painted entirely in red, ahead of an important home match against Hapoel Jerusalem, four rounds before the end of the regular season.

The Reds came into the clash riding a streak of four consecutive league wins, aiming to maintain their positive momentum.

Having secured their spot in the Upper Playoff in the previous round, Hapoel now strives to finish the regular season as strongly as possible and carry this momentum into the decisive stages.

Hapoel started the match with Stav Toriel and Doron Leidner, who returned to the lineup after a period of absence due to injuries.

From the very first minute, Hapoel controlled the game but struggled to generate quality scoring chances against the Jerusalem defense.

In the 42nd minute, Loizos Loizou was brought down in the box. Initially, referee Snir Levi did not point to the spot, but following VAR intervention, a justified penalty was awarded to Hapoel.

The team's top scorer, Stav Toriel, stepped up and converted precisely, netting his tenth league goal of the season. 1-0 to Hapoel.

Just three minutes later, an excellent throw-in by Marcus Coco reached the head of Andrian Kraev, who nodded it down to Toriel. The striker headed it in to complete a personal brace his second of the match and 11th league goal this season. 2-0 to Hapoel.

The second half followed a similar script; Hapoel controlled the tempo, yet it was the bottom-table rival that managed to narrow the deficit in the 70th minute to 2-1.

In the 88th minute, Hapoel sealed the deal with a third goal following a superb team move. Xande Silva started the play and passed to Loizou, who delivered an accurate cross to Emmanuel Boateng, who scored his debut goal in the Red uniform, setting the final score at 3-1.

At the final whistle, Hapoel records its fifth consecutive league victory.

The Reds climb to third place in the table with 44 points (in addition to two points deducted by the court) and a goal difference of 44:26 (+18).

The first league meeting between Hapoel Tel Aviv and Hapoel Tiberias took place on November 18, 1961. Hapoel hosted the match at the Maccabi North pitch in Tel Aviv, winning 4-2 on Matchday 4. Rehavia Rosenbaum scored a hat-trick (minutes 40, 49, 70), and Daniel Danieli completed the tally in the 83rd minute.

On March 21, 1964, Hapoel recorded its biggest victory over Tiberias in history, defeating them 5-1 at the Tiberias Municipal Stadium on Matchday 20. The scoring celebration was led by Avraham Friedrich (37), Gideon Tish (44, 74), and Rehavia Rosenbaum (84, 86).

The last league match between the two where Hapoel was the visiting team took place on March 31, 1990. On that occasion, Hapoel visited Tiberias and lost 2-1. Hapoel's solitary goal was scored by Israel Maya in the 88th minute.

Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv recorded another home victory this afternoon, this time 2-0 over Maccabi Netanya as part of Matchday 21 of the Winner League. Korine and Lemkin scored.

Just five days after the victory in the Tel Aviv derby, Hapoel hosted Maccabi Netanya today at Bloomfield Stadium in front of full stands of the home red crowd, as part of Matchday 21 of the Premier League. The Reds arrived at the match enjoying positive momentum and a streak of four league games without a loss, in which they recorded three victories.

The opening of the match was characterized by a slight advantage for Hapoel, but the first half proceeded mostly without special events and without real opportunities near either goal. The teams went down to the break with a goalless scoreline.

Upon returning for the second half, the professional staff made a substitution, bringing in Omri Altman in place of Roei Alkukin. Hapoel took control of the midfield and reached several scoring situations that were not utilized in the opening minutes.

In the 65th minute, the dam broke. A fine team move that started with Loizos Loizou, continued through Omri Altman, and reached Xande Silva, ended with a shot by the latter at the goal. The visiting goalkeeper managed to parry the ball, but the rebound reached the feet of Roy Korine, who rolled the ball in front of an exposed net to make it 1-0 for Hapoel. This is Roy Korine's fourth league goal this season.

Hapoel continued to control the pace of the game even after taking the lead. In the 88th minute, Amit Lemkin sealed the match result when he scored the second goal and secured the victory.

At the final whistle, Hapoel Tel Aviv records its tenth victory this season in a home game at Bloomfield. Following the three points, the team climbs to third place in the table with 38 points (alongside two points deducted from its balance by the court) and a goal difference of 39:25 (+14).
