The1946Palestine Cup (Hebrew:הגביע הארץ-ישראלי,HaGavia HaEretz-Israeli) was the fourteenth season ofIsraeli Football Association's nationwide football cup competition.
The defending champion,Beitar Tel Aviv was eliminated in the first round after losing twice toMaccabi Nes Tziona.Hapoel Tel Aviv had difficulties throughout the competition, losing a match in the first round to minnowsHapoel Givatayim, and barely making it through the next round againstMaccabi Rehovot, finally crashing toHapoel Rishon LeZion in the quarter-finals.
Maccabi Tel Aviv andHapoel Rishon LeZion met in the two-legged final,Maccabi winning both legs to obtain its 5th cup.
For this season, each round was played over two legs, based on theMitropa Cup. The change in format was caused by disagreements betweenHapoel andMaccabi factions within theEIFA, which prevented any EIFA activities until March 1946. As the disagreement was settled in March, the EIFA decided to expand the cup competitions to two matches per round, to allow the teams more matches to play.[1]
