Haifa Soccer





We went to a soccer game that was within walking distance. It was awsome! Maccabi Haifa won 2 to 1 and all the goals were scored right in front of our seats. I can't wait to attend another game. People really get into it here. Its not like the baseball games at home since you sit almost on the field. There are no big TV screens to watch on or see instant replays - if you miss it, that's it! Still, I'll never be able to enjoy watching it on TV again. I found it so exciting and got more into it then I ever got at baseball games....

There are 2 major soccer teams right here in Haifa. They are Hapoel Haifa Football Club and Maccabi Haifa Football Club. They both play at Kiryat Eliezer Stadium.
