A security guard at the Moshava Stadium assaulted fans during a soccer match between Maccabi Netanya and Hapoel Petah Tikva on Tuesday evening. Video footage shows the guard cursing at Maccabi Netanya supporters, spitting at them, and punching one fan. The exact cause of the altercation has not yet been determined, and the police are investigating the incident.
This is not the first time violence has erupted at the Moshava Stadium involving security personnel and fans. In August, a similar incident occurred between a guard and Hapoel Petah Tikva fans during a Toto Cup match between the same two clubs. In that instance, the guard reportedly used an iron crowbar to strike a fan.
Following the August incident, both the Football Association and the police pledged that such events would not be repeated. However, Tuesday's events suggest that no lessons were learned from the previous occurrence, as a similar violent confrontation took place.
