Maccabi Petah Tikva lost (2-1) to Beitar Jerusalem in the final minute of stoppage time. It had already surpassed the 90 and the whistle of the referee seemed imminent when Vered scored the winner for the locals. Beitar took the lead in the 5th minute, but Melamed made the equaliser 1-1. A positive result for Maccabi that failed in the last moments.
Carlos Cuéllar played the full match. The Madrid-born centre-back and his teammates, who have made a great regular season, have lost the advantage they had in the third place. They slip down to the fourth place, now two points behind Beitar. There are four games left to the end of the play-off. The first of them, this Saturday against Bnei Sakhnin.
