Bnei Sakhnin secured a convincing 2-0 win against Hapoel Petah Tikva at Doha Stadium on Saturday, continuing their momentum in the league. Despite not displaying exceptional football, coach Yossi Abuksis's team earned their second victory in the last three matches.

Hapoel Petah Tikva started stronger, with Alex Musonda hitting the post early on. However, Sakhnin adopted a strategy of absorbing pressure and launching counter-attacks, which proved effective. The visitors dominated possession with 66% of the ball, but Sakhnin's efficiency paid off.

Ahmed Salman opened the scoring in the 30th minute with a precise shot into the right corner. In the second half, Matthew Kudjoe doubled Sakhnin's lead in the 74th minute after a well-executed team play, causing significant trouble for the opposing defense.

Hapoel Petah Tikva, coached by Omer Peretz, ended the game with six yellow cards, many issued to disrupt Sakhnin's counter-attacks. This loss leaves Hapoel Petah Tikva in 12th place with only four points, marking a poor start to the season amidst rising concerns for the club.

Conversely, the win lifts Bnei Sakhnin to eighth place with seven points from their last three games, during which they have not conceded a goal. Sakhnin's next match is against Ironi Kiryat Shmona in Netanya.
