In an Israel Championship Bet League South fixture, Ironi Beit Dagan edged Hapoel Hod HaSharon 3-2. The hosts struck first inside the opening minute and added two more after the break, despite the visitors pulling two goals back. Ironi controlled 55 % of possession and launched 50 dangerous attacks to their opponents’ 35, though they conceded more corners (4-5).

Hapoel picked up four yellow cards—twice as many as Ironi—and failed to capitalise on set-piece superiority. Neither side received red cards or penalties, and all goals came in open play. The victory strengthened Ironi’s position at the top of the group.
