Ramat Gan-Bnei Lod National League match ends with players and club officials on field; Tabib to sell Hapoel Tel Aviv.

Israeli soccer was rocked to its foundations on Friday and the aftershocks to follow could change the local game forever.

A violent on-pitch brawl at the end of Friday’s National League match between Hapoel Ramat Gan and Bnei Lod prompted the Israel Football Association to cancel the rest of the weekend’s league fixtures in the two top divisions.
