Maccabi Netanya secured a decisive 4-0 victory over Maccabi Haifa on Saturday, showcasing strong preparation and tactical acumen under coach Roni Levi. This win follows a similar four-goal performance against Beitar Jerusalem, highlighting Netanya's effectiveness against top-tier clubs.

The team not only scored four goals but also maintained a clean sheet, earning praise for Levi's game management, lineup choices, and overall approach. Club officials noted that less experienced coaches might have been intimidated by the crowd's reaction, but Levi's composure under pressure was a key factor. They also commended the fans for their sustained support, even during a scoreless first half, and for remaining to applaud the players after the final whistle.

Individual performances also stood out. Maor Levi returned to the starting lineup, and Benny Feldman impressed, prompting questions within the club about why he isn't receiving more playing time with the youth national team under coach Guy Luzon. Additionally, William Cyprien showed improved professionalism and fitness, having lost approximately four kilograms. This resurgence suggests that Bokary Konate may be the foreign player to be left out of the squad when all players are fit. The club also has depth in defense, with Denis Kulikov and Karem Jaber available as backup options if a center-back needs to be replaced.
