2nd-3rd place match
[edit]As F.C. Ramat HaSharon and ASA Tel Aviv finished level on points, a match was arranged to set the placing of each team at the end of regular seasons, in order to determine the two teams' order of matches. The match was played on 7 March 2017, and was abandoned at the 55th minute, with Ramat HaSharon leading 5–0, as ASA appeared to the match with only 11 players and four of them had to leave the pitch due to injuries.
