Maccabi Netanya announced that additional stands will not be opened for their fans ahead of the match against Hapoel Petah Tikva. The club claims the host team reneged on a prior agreement between the two clubs. According to Netanya's statement, it was agreed that once tickets for stands 4-5 sold out, stands 1-2 would be opened for sale to Netanya supporters. The club asserted that Hapoel Petah Tikva withdrew from this agreement, despite having confirmed their adherence to it earlier that day. Netanya stated, "Despite a prior agreement between the clubs, according to which after the tickets for stands 4-5 are finished, stands 1-2 will be opened for sale to our fan base, the management of Hapoel P.T. backed out of the agreement even though this morning they announced they would uphold the prior agreement. Because of this, additional stands will not be opened for the benefit of Maccabi Netanya fans. Please be advised, only a few tickets remain for purchase on the 'Le'an' website, and stadium ticket booths will not open this evening. We thank you for your great support and apologize to anyone who did not manage to purchase a ticket. See you tonight! Let's go Netanya."
