Pelita Jaya v Persijap 1-1
Pelita Jaya made a couple of changes from their narrow win over Persita last weekend with coach Fandi Ahmad bringing back Dian Agus Prasetyo and Dony Gendot replacing the ineffective Rudi Widowo.
But everything went tits up when Dony was injured in the first half meaning a shot shy attack had Rudi back up front...hardly the ideal scenario.
Basri gave PJ the lead five minutes before half time but the thing with Fandi's boys is you can't see them scoring a second. Especially not with this performance where it wasn't just the final ball that went stray. All too often the first ball became the final in a deeply disappointing display by the home side.
Persijap don't get much on the road but they equalised about midway through the second half though there was a question of offside.
Fandi's frustrations were typified right at the death when defender Yohan Ibo went for glory with a 35 yard free kick. What happened to dinking the ball into the box and allowing the likes of Lopes to unsettle the defence?
