The defeat, coupled with Hapoel Petah Tikva's better goal difference, saw Ramat Gan drop into the bottom three.
The team expressed disappointment, acknowledging they conceded "too many easy goals" and need to be tougher to avoid giving away "gifts." David Asanka, returning from injury, missed several key scoring opportunities that could have secured points for his team.
