League Play-Off

Omen Stadium
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Haim Nisani kicked off to start the match. Kochav Rif made an important save on a dangerous shot by Albert Ohayon in the 3rd minute. 4 minutes into the game, Simon Shenhav was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Omen's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave SC Immara the free kick. After a rather tough play, Omen's Simon Shenhav got a free kick in the 4th minute. Noam Saharof sent away a hard shot on goal in the 17th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. SC Immara's Kochav Rif played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Noam Saharof in the 22nd minute of play. In the 23rd match minute, SC Immara was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Valery Asraf to maneuver through the defense. Albert Ohayon could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 27th minute of the match, but Kochav Rif made a huge save. An unexpected shot in the 30th minute by Albert Ohayon got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. SC Immara's Kochav Rif proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 32nd minute of the match, managed to save SC Immara from getting a goal against them. Valery Asraf's late challenge caught a Omen's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Valery Asraf helped the player get up and apologised. In the 35th minute, Valery Asraf hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Antoni Asulin was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 35th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. After 40 minutes of play, SC Immara's Yahn Shnieor made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Mahmud Mushailov was left in no man's land by his defense there! Nadiv Gros took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 45th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Mahmud Mushailov. Omen's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. If Mush Rabin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 48th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Noam Saharof to make the kick off. The crowd rose to their feet as Haim Nisani kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Mahmud Mushailov. That made the score 0-2 in the 52 minute of play. Albert Ohayon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 62nd minute, Mush Rabin hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Haim Nisani had several of the Omen's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 72 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 0-3 score and a disappointed Mahmud Mushailov as he didn't even see the shot coming. Mahmud Mushailov made an important save on a dangerous shot by Yahn Shnieor in the 83rd minute. An unexpected shot in the 85th minute by Yahn Shnieor got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. Haim Nisani recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 87th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The supporters of SC Immara booed when Omen was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 89 match minutes in a wonderful position. Mush Rabin didn't get a good kick on the ball. After recieving a nice pass, SC Immara's Nadiv Gros tried to score from far away in the 90th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. In the 92nd minute, Albert Ohayon made a precise shot to the right of Kochav Rif. SC Immara's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-3. Omen's Mahmud Mushailov proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 96th minute of the match, managed to save Omen from getting a goal against them. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. SC Immara walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
