Hapoel Tel Aviv secured a significant 3-0 victory over Beitar Jerusalem on Sunday in front of 19,700 fans at Bloomfield Stadium. This marked the team's first league win of the season and came in a particularly convincing fashion against a major rival. Hapoel Tel Aviv took the lead in the 17th minute when Ro'i Alukon scored with a header from a cross.
The advantage held until halftime, but the game shifted early in the second half. In the 48th minute, Beitar Jerusalem's key defender, Luka Gadrani, was sent off, leaving his team with a numerical disadvantage that hampered their defensive efforts.
Hapoel Tel Aviv capitalized on the situation, increasing pressure and scoring twice more. Douglas Owusu found the net in the 73rd minute, and Dafa completed the scoring in the 83rd minute, sealing the 3-0 win.
Following the match, coach Eliniv Barda emphasized the team's goals of maintaining possession and continuing to improve their defense and ability to challenge opponents. One player described the locker room atmosphere as positive, noting the team feels stronger but acknowledging it's only the second week of the season.
The celebrations extended beyond the field, with Moise Safra, son of Hapoel Tel Aviv's owner, posting a taunting message on social media platform X, "A belt to the ass." The win provides Hapoel Tel Aviv with considerable momentum early in the season, though the team understands this is just the beginning and must prove this performance can become a consistent trend.
