Maccabi Tel Aviv Wins First Super Cup Title, Earns Significant Prize Money
Maccabi Tel Aviv officially kicked off the 2026/27 season with an impressive 101-83 victory over Hapoel Tel Aviv in the Super Cup derby on Thursday. This marks the club's first-ever Super Cup title in the competition's second year. Last season, Maccabi, coached by Oded Katash, lost to Hapoel Jerusalem in the same final.
The win brings Maccabi's total trophy count to 117 in Israel, including 58 league championships, 47 state cups, and 11 Winner Cups. If they win all domestic titles this season, they will reach 120.
As a reward for their victory, Maccabi Tel Aviv will receive approximately 135,000 shekels. The game was highlighted by the strong debut of new signing Yam Madar, who scored 13 points, dished out 7 assists, and had no turnovers against his former team, Hapoel Tel Aviv, whom he left this summer.
