The youth team hosted Hapoel Haifa on Saturday in Matchday 12 of the Youth Premier League and collected another three points with a 2:0 victory.
Shahar Weisinger’s side came into the match after a dramatic 4:2 win over Hapoel Ra’anana in their return from the break, sitting top of the league table. After a goalless first half, Omri Levy, who had come off the bench just two minutes earlier, received a cross from Yishai Brosh, who was wearing the captain’s armband, got ahead of his marker and finished first time.
In the 70th minute, Levy received a through ball inside the box from Itamar Chosyd, turned and fired into the top corner - a brace for the young striker, taking his league tally to four goals. 2:0 to the Reds at full time.
Hapoel remain in first place in the league standings with 27 points from a possible 36 and a positive goal difference of 24:12. The next league match will take place this coming Tuesday (16.12, 15:45), when the team will host Hapoel Kiryat Shmona at Bat Yam Stadium.
