Following their disappointment in the Champions League playoffs, Hapoel Be'er Sheva secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Hapoel Ramat Gan in Rehovot on August 29, 2026. The reigning champions, who had postponed their league opener, began their Israeli Premier League season with a crucial win despite a depleted squad under coach Ran Kojukh.
Be'er Sheva, fielding a somewhat improvised attack featuring Amit Ohana, Amir Ganah, and Hamudi Kna'an, created early chances including a disallowed goal by Itay Rotman for offside. Ramat Gan was more threatening in the first half, with David Asanka hitting the crossbar and Luan Campos denied by goalkeeper Ofir Marciano.
The second half saw Be'er Sheva dominate possession and press higher, breaking the deadlock in the 61st minute when Amit Ohana scored his first Premier League goal by dribbling past two defenders and the goalkeeper Amit Reif. However, Ramat Gan equalized unexpectedly in the 76th minute through Matan Chozas’s first touch, leveling the score at 1-1.
In a dramatic finish, Eliel Peretz scored a free-kick goal in the 90th minute, securing a 2-1 victory for Be'er Sheva. This marked Ramat Gan's second consecutive loss to start the season, leaving them frustrated with the result. Be'er Sheva’s win, though not a polished performance, was enough to earn three valuable points after their European campaign setback.
