Maccabi Tel Aviv Defeats Hapoel Tel Aviv in Social Super Cup Derby
In the opening game of the Social Super Cup, Hapoel Tel Aviv faced Maccabi Tel Aviv in a derby match. During the first half, Hapoel's star player, Vasilije Micić, received a technical foul following a confrontation with the referees. The incident occurred during a Hapoel offensive play when Micić, after colliding with T.J. Leaf and believing a foul should have been called on him, argued with referee Omer Estreikh. Estreikh issued Micić a technical foul, which was his second of the game, resulting in his temporary removal to the bench.
Micić concluded the first half with seven points, seven assists, and three turnovers, including the technical foul. Dan Ortero led Hapoel Tel Aviv in scoring with 11 points. The team trailed Maccabi Tel Aviv 54:42 at halftime.
