As these cups pre-date the existence of a national football association, they are not considered official by the Israel Football Association. During this time there was also a national cup organised by the Maccabi organisation, the Magen Shimshon, but this only included Maccabi clubs.Yaniv Bleicher Israel – List of Cup Finals Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation https://www.rsssf.org/tablesi/isracuphist.html 4 November 2011 11 November 2013 live https://web.archive.org/web/20110628202643/http://www.rsssf.com/tablesi/isracuphist.html June 28, 2011 Results First round The matches were played on 7 April 1928 and 14 April 1928.Haifa - In Sport Davar, 8 April 1928, Historical Jewish Press heThe Eretz Israel Football Cup Do'ar HaYom, 19 April 1928, Historical Jewish Press he Home teamScoreAway teamHapoel Haifa 3–1 Sporting Club El-Carmel Haifa Maccabi Tel Aviv 5–0 Maccabi Avshalem Petah Tikva Maccabi Hasmonean Jerusalem 2–0 RAF Amman British Police Mount Scopus 4–0 Hapoel Jerusalem Quarter-finals The matches were played on 21 April 1928 In the Football Competitions Maccabi Hashmonai Beats Maccabi Tel Aviv Do'ar HaYom, 22 April 1928, Historical Jewish Press he and 28 April 1928.Jerusalem - In Sport Davar, 29 April 1928, Historical Jewish Press heTel Aviv - In Sport Davar, 29 April 1928, Historical Jewish Press he The Replay between Hapoel Haifa and British Police was played on 5 May 1928.The Eretz Israel Cup Taken from the British Do'ar HaYom, 6 May 1928, Historical Jewish Press he Home teamScoreAway teamBritish Police Mount Scopus 0–0 Hapoel Haifa P.G.H.
