In the begginning of Israeli football this used to be a big game, but today Maccabi Tel Aviv only team in Ligat Ha'Al who hasn't tasted second divison will play traditional Beitar/Shimshon Tel Aviv ( who is actually a recent fusion between Beitar Tel Aviv and Shimshon Tel Aviv) a game valid for the 9th round of the State Cup. Beitar Shimshon is currently in sixth place of Liga Artzit ( third division) nine poitns from promotion zone.
Maccabi is focused on its survival in the league and won't give much importance to the State cup even though winning the cup would save the season for the the club and give even an european spot for next season.

ooo Cinderella we have here what a game. A real derby that was long missed in Tel Aviv. I mean..... i think Shimshon was in the top spots in the 90's, but they went down horribly....

This game only gives Kappa some appetitite to unleash his 5th or 6th annual Kappa's infamous yes famous March Maddness

Liga Leumit and Arzit promotion at its finest

This is the type of competiton that is very difficult to predict. In one good day a small team could surprise and win and we have seen this time after time.
I wouldn´t be surprised if Maccabi loses today.
Beitar Tel Aviv and Shimshon Tel Aviv made a fusion. Currently they are on Liga Artzit. Both were very traditional, especially Beitar Tel Aviv, who until mid 90´s were in top flight, if i´m not mistaken in season 96/97 they were relegated.

Regarding today´s game, we already have 65 minutes and a goaless draw. Beitar Tel Aviv had good opportunities to score, but didn´t capitalized it.
Game is being played at Shkunat ha Tikva.

The infamous Shkunat Ha Tikva

What happens if they tie?

The infamous Shkunat Ha Tikva

What happens if they tie?

Well they would tie and the game would head to penalty kicks, but on the 120th minute with a goal from Adam Mizrahi Beitar/Shimshon Tel Aviv managed to make the first big impact as they defeated Maccabi Tel Aviv 1-0 at Shkunat ha Tikva.
Maccabi played terribly and this will cost Nir Levin any hope of contuning next season.

This was the shame season with historical defeats to Santa Coloma in Uefa Cup and a early exit from the State Cup losing to a Liga Artzit side.
