Bnei Sakhnin coach Yossi Abukasis became embroiled in an ugly incident with a group of Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters during a 0-0 draw between the two teams at Bloomfield Stadium. Abukasis was seen shouting curses towards the stands after claiming he was subjected to severe verbal abuse throughout the entire match.
According to Abukasis, a small faction of Maccabi fans seated behind the Sakhnin bench directed harsh insults at him and his daughters, including wishing them cancer. "They cursed me the whole game," Abukasis stated, responding to questions about his own outburst. He added, "I think they deserve much more. The curses they hurled at me during the game... why aren't you saying that? It's a shame you didn't hear what they said above me, worse curses than the word I said to them, and I was mumbling. There are coaches bigger than me who explode like this. You sit relaxed and don't hear the curses from the first minute."
Abukasis emphasized that while emotions run high in football, his actions were a reaction to prolonged abuse. "There are emotions, I didn't throw anything. They also need to be educated. Maccabi Tel Aviv's crowd doesn't deserve everything, to curse such harsh curses from the beginning of the game. Just because a crowd buys a ticket doesn't give them the right to curse such harsh curses. It's permissible to curse, no problem, but harsh curses? If you say what happened, everyone will justify me."
