Lundberg’s aggression powers Maccabi Tel Aviv’s decisive third quarter
Danish guard Hapoel Lundberg delivered a standout performance for Maccabi Tel Aviv in the final, breaking a personal five-year scoring and foul-drawing benchmark and taking control in the third quarter. The game was reported by Sport 5 on June 18, 2026, at 22:25.
Lundberg scored 17 points in total, with 10 of them coming in the fourth quarter after he had already helped swing the game in the third. His burst pushed Maccabi Tel Aviv to a large lead over the Reds heading into the final period, and he finished as Maccabi’s leading scorer.
Early in the game, Lundberg had seven points in the first half and drew eight fouls, the highest total he has ever forced while playing for Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Israeli Premier League. That previous club record was four fouls, meaning he more than doubled his own best mark.
His eight free throws were also a club record for Maccabi Tel Aviv and the most he has attempted since 2021. The article frames his aggressiveness as a key factor in the championship game’s turning point.
