Hapoel Tel Aviv Draws Largest Away Crowd Among Israeli Clubs in European Qualifiers
The first qualifying round for Israeli football clubs in European competitions has concluded, with Hapoel Be'er Sheva, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Beitar Jerusalem, and Hapoel Tel Aviv advancing despite hosting their home matches abroad due to security concerns in Israel. UEFA released official attendance figures for each club's home game outside Israel. Hapoel Tel Aviv attracted the largest crowd, with 3,944 fans attending their match against Ludogorets in Miskolc, Hungary. Beitar Jerusalem followed with 2,651 spectators at their game versus Larnaca in Ploiești, Romania. Maccabi Tel Aviv drew 1,014 fans in their match against Sheriff in Batumi, Georgia, while Hapoel Be'er Sheva had the smallest attendance of 397 at their game against Vikingur in Szombathely, Hungary. Hapoel Be'er Sheva was aware they would face at least two more qualifying rounds, and Maccabi Tel Aviv expected at least one more stage in the competition.
