Weekend wrap
Group 1
Medan v Tangerang 2-0 5,000
Bireuen v Pelita Jaya 1-3 5,000
Bogor District v Malang 2-1 6,000
Tangerang City v Persik 1-2 2,000
Banda Aceh v Sriwijaya 1-2 11,000
Deli Serdang v North Jakarta 1-2 3,000
Semarang v Bandung 0-0 10,000 (bullshit!)
Lamongan v Sleman 1-0 11,000
1. Bandung 14 9 3 2 22-11 30
2. Sriwijaya 14 9 3 2 19-8 30
3. Medan 14 9 3 2 14-4 30
4. Jakarta 14 8 3 3 23-13 27
Tangerang City opened the gates to paying supporters for the first time in a few weeks for the attractive looking fixture at home to ACL heroes Kediri and did the fans come a flocking? Did they bollocks. And what a treat they missed as City scored their second home goal of the season but it wasn't enough as Kediri scored twice in the final 9 minutes to secure the points. Franco Hita scored his 10th of the season but Malang came away from Bogor District wet and pointless. Medan's home record of played 8, won 7 and drawn 1 giving them a goal difference of 10-0 isn't working at the turnstiles if the figure of 5,000 is to be believed.
Group 2
Makassar v Jepara 2-0 20,000
Manokwari v Solo 2-0 12,000
Ternate v Arema Malang 1-0 11,000
Minhasa v Pasuruan District 1-0 10,000
Persibom v Bali 1-0 6,000
Manado v Surabaya 1-0 8,000
Bontang v Jayapura 1-1 7,000
Balikpapan v Wamena 1-0 8,000
1. Makassar 14 8 2 4 17-10 26
2. Ternate 15 7 4 4 15-11 25
3. Jayapura 14 7 2 5 24-13 23
4. Sidoarjo 14 6 4 4 22-12 22
5. Minhasa 15 6 4 5 15-15 22
Arema Malang lost to high flying Ternate yet still climbed up to 10th on the table. Funny old game eh? Christopher Wreh inspired Manokwari to a 2-0 victory over Solo by scoring one and getting a yellow card. Trindad, the Argentinian forward at Balikpapan scored his 9th of the season to keep his team just off the Big 4. Away points are crucial in Indonesia as teams seem to travel so poorly and perhaps the vast distances explain why Group 2 scores so poorly. With teams having played at least half a dozen games on the road only Makassar, Ternate and Minhasa have got 6 points! Jayapura will then take great satifaction from their point at Bontang, Solossa equalising just before half time.
