Maccabi Netanya drew 1-1 with Hapoel Jerusalem on Saturday night in a match that concluded the eighth round of the Israeli Premier League. The result marks another disappointment for Maccabi Netanya, coached by Roni Levi, who has secured only one victory in their last seven games. This follows a disappointing start to the 2026/27 season for the team, known as the "Diamonds."
While the on-field performance was underwhelming, the focus of the evening was on the stands, where fans vociferously chanted "Roni, resign." Levi, who managed to stabilize the team last season, is now facing intense pressure from the home crowd following another unsatisfactory outcome. It remains unclear if his position is under immediate review, but the fan sentiment clearly indicates a loss of confidence.
The draw leaves Maccabi Netanya with a single win in their past seven league encounters.
