The Football Association's tribunal has ruled that Maccabi Netanya will be awarded a 3-0 technical victory over Hapoel Petah Tikva. The decision stems from Hapoel Petah Tikva fielding 12 players simultaneously during their match on October 10, which originally ended in a 1-1 draw.
During the 91st minute of the game, Hapoel Petah Tikva attempted a triple substitution. Player Roy Levy was supposed to leave the field but remained on the pitch unnoticed. Subsequently, another player entered the game, resulting in Hapoel Petah Tikva having 12 players on the field when Maccabi Netanya took a corner kick in the 94th minute.
Maccabi Netanya filed a complaint seeking a technical win. Hapoel Petah Tikva argued it was an unintentional, good-faith error and that they had tried to alert the referees. Even the association's prosecutor initially felt a technical loss was not warranted, as the extra player did not provide an advantage and Netanya scored their equalizer while the opposing team had 12 players.
However, the tribunal rejected these arguments, stating that the responsibility for a proper substitution lies with the team, regardless of intent. The tribunal emphasized that a refereeing error does not absolve Hapoel Petah Tikva of responsibility. Furthermore, the tribunal ruled that the lack of actual advantage gained from the illegal player's presence did not justify avoiding a technical loss, as the violation itself and its potential impact were the key factors.
As a result of the ruling by tribunal members Noam Livin and Nir Smogor, Hapoel Petah Tikva was convicted of fielding an ineligible player, and the match's outcome was changed to a 3-0 technical win for Maccabi Netanya. This victory elevates Netanya to sixth place in the Premier League standings with 12 points, surpassing Bnei Sakhnin. Hapoel Petah Tikva has expressed outrage at the penalty, deeming it disproportionate and unjustified, and has announced its intention to appeal to the Football Association's Supreme Tribunal, vowing to fight for the reversal of the decision and the restoration of the on-field result.
