Maccabi Tel Aviv suffered a 3-2 defeat to Hapoel Tel Aviv in the Toto Cup final on Thursday, marking their first loss of the season to an Israeli team. "Yes, it's a blow to the fans and the club. We are very disappointed," said Maccabi Tel Aviv coach Kenny Miller. "We didn't do enough in the final third except for the last few minutes. With this kind of defense, you can't win in football. If we defended normally, we would have had a chance at the end."
Maccabi Tel Aviv had been hoping to add the Toto Cup to their Super Cup title won earlier in the summer but ultimately fell short against their city rivals.
