Maccabi Haifa took a huge step towards qualification for the Europa League Group J as thrashed side Steaua Bucharest, who finished with nine men 5-0.
A double Amasha WEAM early Maccabi in the control was within the first 20 minutes and things got worse for Eric Bicfalvi Steaua goodbye after 36 minutes he gave a penalty from Yaniv Katan, who made it 3-0.
Maccabi was even missing a penalty on 65 minutes after Valentin Iliev was dismissed for a professional foul, but the goals continued to flow.
Tawatcha Taleb added a fourth on 72 minutes and Idan Vered added another seven minutes later.
Maccabi needed only nine minutes to take the initiative, Katan passing Amasha to catch fire in the network.
Steaua sought an answer, but Leandro Tatu shot out before Florin Costea effort was saved by Bojan Saranov.
Orel Dgani broad head for Maccabi in the 18th minute, but the second goal was just a few seconds.
And it came to a certain style, with a shot Amasha up brighter in the network.
Steaua desperately unlucky not to get one back two minutes later when a header hit the post Tatu, but instead, was the Maccabi, which continued to advance later.
Amasha blazed over the bar while watching a first hat-trick against the third goal came in minute 37.
Bicfalvi acclaimed Amasha to see red, and Katan put his sentence in the center of the network.
Florin Costea had the opportunity to get a goal for Steaua in the last minute of the second half, but missed the target from the edge of the area.
It was a slow start to the second half with the hosts happy to sit in place and thwart any attempt to return to it Steaua.
Any slim hopes the visitors had to do that all but ended on 64 minutes when Valentin Iliev became the second player to see red, despite powerful Katan penalty hit the crossbar.
Made up for it at 72 minutes Idan Vered found Tawatcha corner who attacked his house a short distance.
And then the roles were reversed and crossed Tawatcha Vered fire at home with a powerful shot.
