Fourth round

[edit]

The 15 qualifiers from the third round were divided into 7 ties, with Maccabi Rishon LeZion receiving a bye to the quarter-finals.[2] Matches were played on 23 February 1952, with the tie between Hapoel Haifa and Hapoel Tel Aviv going into a double replay, played on 1 March 1952 and 8 March 1952. The second replay between the teams were abandoned midway through the second half, with Hapoel Tel Aviv leading 2–0, after a Hapoel player was sent off, and the crowd stormed the pitch.[3][4][5] The IFA ordered the teams to play the 23 minutes left in the game on a neutral pitch. Hapoel Haifa appealed the decision, and when the appeal was denied, resigned from the competition.[6][7]
