Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 91: Madura Umisale FC vs Batavia Fort FC

In the evening, the second quarter-final match began. Matches between Madura Umisale FC against Batavia Fort FC.

Although heavy rain poured into the Batavia Fort stadium which is the home of the Batavia Fort FC team, but it still could not stop the home fans to support their favorite team.

Igarashi Maeda was also not less enthusiastic with the supporters of Batavia Fort FC militants. Igarashi Maeda is still present at Batavia Fort stadium even though it is in rainy conditions. Luckily he still got a 1st class ticket that could protect him from the rain, Maeda deliberately did not buy a VIP class ticket because he did not like the aura that was in that place.

Although Maeda got a ticket for the 1st class but the matter of his identity as a potential coach of the Indonesian U-17 national team is still safe, because the people watching from the 1st grade stands were too engrossed in their respective activities. Some are busy looking at his smartphone and occasionally he makes tweets about transfers or rumors about football, some are busy with records containing games from both teams, he said, according to Maeda's view, the man must be a pundit who always gives his opinion about the player or the club. Then, there are also people who are busy taking pictures there as if they really understand about football, these are people who are hated by Igarashi Maeda.

After paying attention to the whole surrounding, Igarashi Maeda began to calm down a little to do his job. There are several names of players who are being monitored by Igarashi Maeda in this match, the players are from both clubs that compete today.

The first name on the Maeda list is a reliable defender who has been the key to the defense of the Batavia Fort team since the last two seasons, named Raffi Putra.

Raffi Putra is known as the guardian of the sturdy walls of Batavia fort, because for two seasons Batavia Fort FC is a team that has conceded very little. Even in this season alone, during the I-Youth group phase alone Batavia has only conceded 7 goals from all the matches they live in the group phase. While in this knockout phase, Batavia Fort FC team only conceded as many as 3 goals.

Raffi Putra's ability is no doubt, even up to the 42nd minute of today's match Raffi Putra managed to dispel many balls very sweet pass from Madura Umisale FC players who tried to steal a goal from Batavia Fort FC.

Raffi Putra has recorded a total of 6 tackles that managed on point, 3 clearance and won 5 of 7 air duels. A pretty impressive record in the first half. Because of his slick performance, Batavia Fort FC managed to get through the first half without conceding.

After Raffi Putra, another name on the list Igarashi Maeda is the figure of winger Madura Umisale who always disrupts the defense of Batavia Fort FC from earlier. Ahmad Munip Hadi his name, winger Madura Umisale who has a very fast speed and has a good vision of playing as well.

Throughout the first half, Munip Hadi always ran and continued to run non-stop to penetrate the defense of the Batavia Fort FC team. But sadly, the coach of Batavia Fort FC seems to give a special task to Raffi Putra to continue holding the figure of Munip Hadi so that Munip Hadi continues to meet with Raffi Putra and he always loses in duels against the figure of Raffi Putra.

The only golden opportunity he made in the first half was a stabbing movement that managed to outwit Raffi Putra, but unfortunately Munip Hadi's plesing kick still did not meet the net of the Batavia Fort FC team.

In the second half they both continued to meet again, they both continued to duel and beat each other. But Raffi Putra is superior because his posture is bigger than Munip Hadi. Munip Hadi, who was too upset because he could not penetrate Raffi Putra, tried to directly give a cross to the penalty box of the Batavia Fort FC team, unfortunately, the Batavia Fort FC goalkeeper immediately punched the cross ball and made his territory safe again.

Utilizing the space left by Madura Umisale FC players, finally in the 60th minute a goal was created. The cross feed of full-back Batavia Fort FC was successfully headed well by their forwards and goalkeeper Madura Umicale FC could not pull off a sharp header from forward Batavia Fort FC. the score was 1-0 for the superiority of Batavia Fort FC.

Although left behind, but Madura Umisale FC players still do not break charcoal. They keep playing attacking and trying all sorts of ways to equalise. However, the appearance of Raffi Putra really makes a different value for the defense of the Batavia Fort FC team.

And finally the efforts of Madura Umisale FC players managed to make the Batavia Fort Stadium public silent and silent. And what makes the supporters of Batavia Fort FC began to be nervous is the figure of Munip Hadi.

Munip Hadi managed to trick the figure of Raffi Putra by doing the double touch skill and finally Raffi Putra was exposed to ankle break after that, then Raffi Putra also broke into the defense of the Batavia Fort FC team and immediately kicked the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal and managed to equalize the score to 1-1.

"They both really showed great performances tonight" Igarashi Maeda commented after seeing the appearance of the figure on his list. "Maybe it's time they play those versatile players"

As if he knew and could have expected it, what Igarashi Maeda said had really happened. The coach of Batavia Fort FC immediately changed players, he included a number 18 named Wildan Hutami.

Wildan Hutami was a central midfielder, but the Batavia Fort FC team coach put him in the attacking midfield position and played a little wide as a flank. If other players may be difficult to do the task given by the coach of the Batavia Fort FC team, but not for Wildan Hutami the number 18 who just entered it.

Wildan Hutami is a versatile player aka versatile owned by the Batavia Fort FC team. Wildan Hutami has also been monitored by Igarashi Maeda since the group stages because of his versatility.

The entry of Wildan Hutami really gives a real impact, several times the Madura Umisale FC team must be troubled because of Wildan's actions. And finally in the 80th minute, Wildan Hutami managed to record his name on the scoreboard through a hard kick from outside the penalty box.

Igarashi Maeda immediately smiled to see the appearance of Wildan Hutami who had just entered it and instead scored a goal, even the goal was the decisive goal of the victory of the Batavia Fort FC team over Madura Umisale FC and Batavia Fort FC also managed to advance to the semi-finals, while Madura Umisale FC steps should stop at this stage only.

Igarashi Maeda is satisfied to see the players he lists show their best performance, even though Munip Hadi did not win the day, but his performance has satisfied the figure of Igarashi Maeda and it looks like Igarashi Maeda is already convinced by his choice.
