VS.  MACCABI "ELITE" TEL-AVIV , HOME.

SCORE:  71 - 88, Loss.
 
GAME SUMMARY:

Cellcom Galil Elyon didn't think that there will be a 4th game in the serie, but the huge win in Tel-Aviv (72-62) made Tel-Aviv coming again to Kfar Blum, and finish the serie only there...

Tel-Aviv came to this game angry and hurt by lossing to Galil at home, and wanted to win this game really bad. Galil was tired after the big win in Tel-Aviv, and what we can do, Tel-Aviv is just a better team than Galil (and much more yellow - yach! - excuse me David Blatt..).

Galil started well, leading 8-3 and 13-11 but then Tel-Aviv ran 12-0 to 23-13, and Galil didn't come back from this. Galil reduce the lead of Maccabi at the halftime to 6, 42-48 but couldn't do much more.
In the second Half, Tel-Aviv escaped to 73-52 and the game was over, but Galil still fought back and managed to loss by 17, 71-88. The great fans of Galil didn't stop for even a minute to cheer up their team, even when it was over. The fans owe Galil many smiles in this season.
Tel-Aviv came ready to this game, and its FT% were much better than the 3rd game. Tel-Aviv scored 8 threes from 12 shots, and that made the difference. Galil lost 15(!) balls, while Tel-Aviv lost only 3 times. The players of Tel-Aviv (Shelef, Sheffer, Henefeld) that played in Galil, felt good in Kfar Blum, and won the game.
In Galil Saffar and Kozickaro gave good game, but it wasn't enough this time.

Thank you Cellcom Galil Elyon for a great season, that finishes with a great taste!!
C'ya next season!
