Hapoel Petah Tikva: The Israeli football Premier League resumed after it was suspended on October 7, when the conflict between Israel and Hamas broke out.

The league returned with a first-round match, in which the reigning champions Maccabi Haifa beat Hapoel Petah Tikva 2-1 at the Sammy Ofer Stadium in the northern city of Haifa, reports Xinhua.

The match, played behind closed doors for security reasons, was originally scheduled for Aug. 26. It was then postponed due to Haifa's qualifying matches in the UEFA Champions League and rescheduled again due to the war.
