 Ernest

Mabouka's match worn retro shirt from the Maccabi Haifa vs. Maccabi Petah Tikvah match played on April 3rd, 2021 at the Sami Offer Stadium in Haifa. Mabouka came on as a substitute in the 71st minute replacing Sun Menachem. The match ended as a 1-1 draw. Haifa took an early lead from a 19' minute goal by Tjarron Cheri, but Petah Tikvah equalized in the 51' minute from Liel Abada. 

The shir

t is extremely rare as this match was only the second time where Haifa wore a 1 off commemorative shirt (first time was in the final match of the 2008/09 season), and commemorates Maccabi Haifa's 1984/85 championship season. The shirt contains the same Volvo sponsor logo on the front but only has 2 stripes on the shoulders, instead of the standard adidas 3. The shirt also has the variety sponsor on the back and the players last name.
