Maccabi Tel Aviv halted their negative momentum with an 88-71 win over Hapoel Jerusalem in the Toto Cup semifinals on Sunday. After a poor first half, the Yellows took control of the game, notably outscoring their opponents 29-17 in the final quarter. The decisive surge was led by guard Iffe Lundberg, who had been scoreless through the first three quarters before exploding for 14 points, including four three-pointers, in the fourth. This performance earned him the moniker "Here's Lundberg" on social media, referencing his previous struggles. Lundberg stated after the game, "I've been in this business long enough to know that one good game is enough to change momentum." The win marks a return to form for Maccabi Tel Aviv after a difficult start to their EuroLeague season.
