The 3rd league final match between Maung Raja and Persikota which today is held at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium has been started since five in the afternoon. It had been ten minutes and the match both sides were in a fierce condition.


In this match the spectators in the stands are presented with stunning actions. Neither Maung Raja nor Persikota mercilessly launch attacks when they get the ball. But their attacks have not yet produced anything.


A duel between spears that had two ends or a sharp trident was finally first won by the trident belonging to Persikota. With their 4-3-3 formation, Persikota's left winger Zando made it past Andre and Faiz in succession.


Coach Handoko has advised them not to shift their guard against the Persikota striker. But since Zando could not currently be allowed to enter the defense zone any deeper, Sandi who had communicated with Ucup immediately confronted Zando.


Password sliding tackle to snatch the ball from Zando. Before his foot hit the ball, Zando flew the ball slightly in the air and jumped over Sandi's outstretched leg.


The voice of the Persikota supporters immediately sounded louder when a golden opportunity appeared.  Zando distributed the ball forward after their striker reached out his signature hand to ask for the ball.


The striker managed to escape the man to man Ucup guard which proved his quality as a great striker. The ball that was immediately kicked by the Persikota striker rubbed against the grass but was unable to stop his speed towards the left corner of the goal.


The saint guarding the goal had anticipated this and jumped in the right direction. It's unfortunate that despite the timing and direction being right, Santo's relatively short posture failed to reach the ball. He stretched out his fingers but only rubbed against the ball.


Excited cheers and ridicule mixed into one. The boos came from Maung Raja supporters aimed at the Persikota striker. The boos grew louder as the striker performed the celebration just below their stands.


Celebrations turned around and showed off her back number. The number 10 player with the name Arif on it managed to score the first goal in today's final match.


Immediate countermeasures were taken by the Maung Raja players. Only twelve minutes later after the first goal was created a goal was created from Maung Raja's side to equalize.


Anton who was on the left wing immediately ran to the middle after seeing the empty space created by Raka. Ahmad who was dribbling the ball without hesitation passed the ball to him. When Anton's left foot managed to receive a good pass, his right foot that had been stretched backwards was immediately swung to push the ball into the goal hard.


Anton rushed to the corner of the field. He jumped while his hands were crossed in front of his chest. Then his body turned around and his hands were lowered while shouting


SIUUUU


A Ronaldo-style celebration gesture was done by him in the final match. Anton laughed out loud as his comrades approached him.


The equalizing goal by Anton managed to suppress the momentum created by Persikota. Now the road becomes calmer.


The reason why Maung Raja struggled to create chances was because their playmaker Raka was heavily guarded by Persikota players. Currently Raka is guarded by two people who position as a central midfielder and defensive midfielder.


Raka will lure the two players out of the guard zone resulting in empty space for his friends. Anton who sees this can take advantage of the situation created by Raka well.


The following minutes Raka began to focus on creating space for his teammates. Raka's effort paid off when the goal was once again created in the 45+1 minute. In the extra minutes before the first half after Alan managed to receive a pass from Andre.


With clever footwork he managed to trick the opponent defender and kick the ball towards the goal. The ball was caught but somehow because of what finally the ball fell and rolled over the goal line. The mistake made by goalkeeper Persikota managed to make Maung Raja turn the table and lead the game with a score of 2 - 1.


During the break coach Handoko gave instructions to his foster children to keep their tempo and not be affected by the tempo of Persikota. He also realizes that Raka is heavily guarded so advised not to rely too much on Raka when building an attack.


Budi who had not played for a long time now entered in the second half to replace Beto to add attacking options in the air duel.


The incident happened immediately after five minutes of the second half. Arif tried to escape from Ucup's strict guard but because Ucup persistently followed him he became upset. Arif elbowed Ucup while making a trick move to escape.


Seeing Ucup sprawled on the grass while holding the cheek, Sandi who was nearby immediately rushed over and pushed Arif. The entire player immediately swarmed over to defend his friends. Some also break up so as not to get too emotional.


Raka pulls Sandi who is in emotion and replaces her to encourage Arif. He thought it would be very dangerous if Sandi was hit by a yellow card. It will be fully utilized by Persikota as the main focus.


Referee Hariadi immediately came and blew the whistle. With its thin-looking body it unexpectedly managed to push players away. He approached Raka and Arif while raising a yellow card for the two of them.


After it was confirmed that Ucup could continue the game, the ball was handed to Santo to start the goal kick. Santo made a short pass to the defender who gradually channeled into the legs of Ahmad.


The situation of Raka is heavily guarded makes Ahmad perform two tasks simultaneously, namely set the tempo and think of a plan to attack. Ahmad's plan was to play slowly so that Persikota adapted to the slow tempo.


When they finally get the Persikota player comfortable with the slow tempo he will start to accelerate to show the mainstay triangle strategy.


The situation that Ahmad was thinking about soon arrived in the 66th minute. Together with Faiz and Andre they form a triangle formation. Raka who was guarded by two people also participated in the move to keep them focused on guarding herself.


Not everyone can fully concentrate on keeping the opponent for a long time. So Raka also found an opportunity to escape the guard that coincided with the arrival of bait from Andre.


The cross-hull feed from the right side was kicked by Raka towards the penalty box which made the players start crowding to the middle of the field. Budi who reaches the height of the ball first does not head to the side but down.


An unexpected pass from Budi that was welcomed by Alan. The Persikota goalkeeper's view blocked by the human crowd made him unaware that the ball had been fired. He reflexively raised his hand but he stopped nothing.


The ball passes through and falls into the goal.
