  • Hapoel Ironi Tiberias will have three more points deducted this season.
  • The team will drop below zero points unless they defeat Maccabi Netanya.
  • The Football Association agreed to a lesser penalty than initially sought.
  • The decision considers punishments for similar cases in other countries.

The disciplinary proceedings against the Israeli football club Hapoel Ironi Tiberias are nearing an end, with a compromise reportedly reached between the club and the Football Association. The agreement, expected to be finalized next week, will see an additional three points deducted from the team's current season total.

The Football Association's decision to reduce the penalty from an initial demand for a double-digit point deduction stems from a reassessment of the punishment in comparison to similar cases in other countries. This latest deduction means Tiberias will fall below zero points unless they secure a victory against Maccabi Netanya this coming Saturday.

The club's previous "transfer irregularities" led to the initial investigation and potential severe penalties. The compromise aims to resolve the matter with a less punitive outcome than initially considered.
