Raffi Putra as captain of the team from Batavia Fort FC so regretted the game from his colleagues in the first half. His colleagues could not make very good use of some of the chances they got before, even Wildan Hutami just managed to get a very glorious opportunity but he failed to execute it as a goal.
The game from Batavia Fort FC was not too bad in the first half, but they can be better than that. At least that is what Raffi Putra meant. Although he did not say it, his colleagues also knew that their captain was also a little difficult with some Cananga Youth Mining players who had lost guard.
Raffi Putra's stats during the first 45 minutes were so brilliant, he managed to record 5 important tackles, 4 intercepts and managed to block several opportunities from the Cananga Youth Mining team that had endangered their goal.
The Batavia Fort FC team coach supported the thinking of their captain by reminding his other children of the inequality that occurs in the opposing team. "They are lame, they lack players who have creativity. The absence of the figure of Rizaldi Fatah does have a huge impact on them and we should be able to take advantage of that gap!" said it.
The Batavia Fort FC players nodded their heads, they felt so too. The absence of the figure of Rizaldi Fatah in the number 10 position really makes the Cananga Youth Mining game slightly changed.
They did play well, but their midfield seemed less solid. Their set-up was also arguably a bit ugly, as several times they only utilized Axel Raihan's individual speed and ability to pierce into the heart of the Batavia Fort FC team's defense. The figure of Rizki Zain who was the number 10 player before Rizaldi Fatah was called up to the Youth-A team looks not able to compensate for the game that is often displayed by Rizaldi Fatah.
The vision of playing the number 10 player is not as good as Rizaldi Fatah, but he tries to keep showing his best performance for himself and also for the team.
Raffi Putra's face showed a bit of disappointment when he learned that Rizaldi Fatah did not enter the starting line-up. He actually wants to face the figure of Rizaldi Fatah, he is very curious as to what players who have just been called to team-A and have gotten his position comfortably.
According to Raffi, during the knockout phase and before, there was not enough player to make it difficult for him. Raffi Putra himself is predicted to be the best player in I-Youth if he is able to bring his team to the title, he said, so to prove his ability he wants to face strong players in I-Youth and establish himself as the best player. One more person on his list, Rizaldi Fatah.
Several times he saw a video recording of Rizaldi Fatah game and he said that this player is crazy. He does not understand what he sees, but he believes he is seeing some great players like joining Rizaldi and forming a new entity. Moreover, when he looked further about Rizaldi, he was very surprised to find out that Rizaldi had just started his football career. Even the most shocking thing was just a few months.
Since then he has been so obsessed with this figure named Rizaldi, and he really hopes to face him and be the one to defeat him. However, because of what happened to Rizaldi at this time he was immediately irritated and Raffi Putra vented his frustration on other Cananga Youth Development players.
Raffi Putra made a promise to himself, he would keep his team defensive and dispel all the balls that led to him and to his team's goal before Rizaldi Fatah was put in the minute he was to be put in.
Ten minutes have passed, the voice of the host began to be heard in the ears of Batavia Fort FC players who made them again prepare to enter the field again. Raffi Putra as team captain immediately led his other colleagues to immediately go to the stadium aisle and prepare to play their second half.
In the Cananga Youth Mining Fortress itself, Coach Satria Hutama does not get bored - his boss reminds his foster children to stick to the gameplan that has been prepared by Coach Satria before. Although the system was not running, but in the last 15 minutes finally the system he built began to be seen.
There are still many gaps, but Coach Satria is a little optimistic about his choice this time. He continues to encourage his foster children to remain enthusiastic and ask them not to get carried away with the game of the opposing team.
"Hey buddy, are your knees getting better?" Derry tries to get Rizaldi to chat.
Derry saw Rizaldi who had only been quiet since then so he wanted to comfort Rizaldi a little. Derry knows very well, if his best friend is very keen to play in this final round. However, Coach Satria wanted to rest her figure first and put it in at the right time.
Of course that is not the correct answer, Rizaldi has not completely recovered from his knee injury but because of the ointment cream he bought from the system store, he said, the pain and pain he suffered from his knee injury can be removed just like that, he said, like a magician who is able to eliminate a dove that is put in a mysterious hat that can make the bird disappear and disappear.
"Stay in your spirit, just wait for your turn. Surely Coach Satria will consider including you if the situation on the field turns a little chaotic" Derry told his best friend, patting his shoulder gently.
Rizaldi smiled faintly hearing that, he was very grateful to Derry for encouraging him. Coach Satria caught it and he was also a little overwhelmed to see it, eventually Coach Satria began to change his mind and began to explain the new gameplan to all of them.
"There's a change of players that I'm going to make. After what I observed in the first half, I was forced to replace Riski Zain with Rizaldi Fatah"
Rizaldi immediately did not believe what he heard, he even asked Coach Satria twice and the answer remained the same. Rizaldi was immediately excited after that, looking like his spirit was burning itself.
Riski Zain also tos with Rizaldi, Riski wishes Rizaldi to be able to play with all his strength even though he knows that Rizaldi is suffering a severe injury.
When the voice of the host began to be heard by all of them, they immediately prepared to go to the hallway and continue the match. Before going into the hallway, all the Cananga Youth Mining players along with the official team formed a circle and gathered all of their palms together.
Coach Satria gave his last speech. "Whatever happens 45 minutes later, forget it all and enjoy your football. The Cananga Youth!"
Which all of them responded to. "Let's goooo!"
Then they all went straight out, getting ready to head into the hallway. However, Rizaldi chose to last a little longer. He is in communication with Borrought-555, the system that has helped him a lot so far.
"Hei Boro" said Rizaldi.
"Yes master?"
"Is there no mission for me? Usually, if I'm going to play my game there's a mission coming in"
Borrought-555 was silent for a moment, making Rizaldi think that Boro was preparing a mission for him. But Boro's answer surprised Rizaldi. "There is no mission for this time Master. Just enjoy the final match that Master has been waiting for, hopefully Master can win it!"
Rizaldi could not help but smile, the man who was so polite and full of manners could not help himself if given such praise or understood. Rizaldi instantly flew into the sky of the seventh layer if needed as such.
Because it has been given spirit by Boro, Rizaldi was increasingly eager to play in the second round later.
