Maccabi Petah Tikva were able to add one point against the historical Maccabi Tel Aviv (0-0). The score lets them remain above their laureate rival. Carlos played all 90 minutes and contributed to maintain a cleen sheet. In stoppage time the fullback was able to reject the last chance from the locals.
The team of the player from Madrid adds four cleen sheet matches in the league. Maccabi Tel Aviv, a giant with 22 league titles and 23 cups on their track record, couldn't beat the visitors' ordered defence. Maccabi Petah Tikva are second on the table with 18 points, 4 points behind the current champion Be'er Sheva. The game-weeks pass by and Carlos Cuéllar and his teammates resist to leave the first positions.
