Maccabi Netanya secured their second impressive win in a week, defeating Hapoel Tel Aviv 2-0 at home in the Israel Premier League on October 26, 2025. Building on their victory over Maccabi Haifa, Netanya produced another disciplined performance to climb the league table. The home side scored a goal in each half, the first coming from a defensive error by Hapoel Tel Aviv and the second from a swift counter-attack that was finished with precision. Hapoel Tel Aviv enjoyed plenty of the ball but created few clear chances against a well-drilled Netanya defense, which recorded a clean sheet. This result marks Netanya as a team in form and complicates Hapoel Tel Aviv's season objectives.
