Tactical Story

Nahariya set up in a disciplined 4-4-2, allowing Bnei Jatt to have the ball in harmless areas while protecting the central corridor. When they won possession, they attacked vertically and with purpose. Bnei Jatt’s build-up play was patient but predictable, and their lack of penetration in the final third ultimately cost them.

Standout Players

Eli Ben David was influential in linking midfield and attack, and his goal set the tone. Omer Sasson provided the killer second goal, while Nahariya’s center-back pairing dealt with crosses and set pieces throughout. Bnei Jatt’s midfielder Mahmoud Nassar worked hard but found little space to operate.
