Hapoel Tel Aviv secured a decisive 3-0 away victory against Hapoel Jerusalem on Tuesday, marking their fourth consecutive win in the Israeli Premier League. Despite a hesitant start, coach Eliyahu Barada's team took control of the match, showcasing effective attacking football and demonstrating excellent form ahead of upcoming crucial games.
Barada made several changes to the starting lineup, including the return of Radamel Falcao and Stav Touriël, with Daniel Dapa starting up front due to Emmanuel Boateng's injury. In the initial 25 minutes, the home team appeared more energetic, while Hapoel Tel Aviv struggled to create chances. However, Dapa broke the deadlock, and Hapoel Tel Aviv gradually asserted dominance. Tactical adjustments by Barada's players allowed them to control the midfield and increase offensive pressure, leading to Dapa scoring the opening goal before halftime for a 1-0 lead.
In the second half, Hapoel Tel Aviv played with increased confidence. Quality team plays resulted in two more goals, with substitute Roy Elkoquin, who came on for an injured Touriël, being a standout performer. Conversely, Hapoel Jerusalem suffered their third consecutive loss, continuing to exhibit concerning defensive weaknesses. After conceding the third goal, the home team struggled to respond, while Barada used the comfortable lead to make substitutions and rest his players.
Hapoel Tel Aviv now faces two significant challenges: a Toto Cup final against Maccabi Tel Aviv in five days, followed by a league match against Maccabi Haifa four days later. The team enters these upcoming fixtures with high confidence and positive momentum, acknowledging the increased difficulty of these next encounters.
