Four Teams Confirm Qualification

The Inter Island Cup is bopping along in it's own sweet, merry way with four of the Big 8 teams already confirmed.
Action from Persib v Persita
The next stage is shaping up something like this:

Group A - Sriwijaya, Arema, Barito Putra, +1
Group B - Persiram, +3

Persib need to defeat Pelita Bandung Raya tomorrow to ensure their spot in the final eight. Conversely, the goal shy PBR would make it themselves were they to win.

Persebaya are involved in a tight race with Persik for a spot as well in that group so it's all to play for in the final games.

As things stand were Persik and Persebaya to draw their final game today then both would qualify as they have seven points, better than any other second placed team.

Without doubt the shock of the tournament has been Persipura's ouster. At least they can concentrate on the ISL!

Arema are on target for a triple of pre season honours after convincingly winning the three games in their group. They have already lifted the East Java Cup and Trofeo Persija.

Outstanding games

15/01 - Persebaya v Persik, Gresik United v Persiba Bantul
16/01 - Persib v Pelita Bandung Raya, Persijap v Persita

Details of the next round of games will no doubt be announced a day or two before they are due to begin and sod the logistics.

Great work with your blog just a few updates about the qualifying teams. There is no "best second teams" qualifying to the next round. In fact only the first ones make it to the next round from the 3 Java groups (Arema ,Persib/PBR and Persik/Persebaya) and 2 from the Kalimantan/Papua groups so Mitra and Perseru are already to the next phase. In fact one group is known already it will be hosted in Malang with Arema, Sriwijaya, Barito and Perseru while the other one will be in Solo with Persiram, Mitra, Persib/PBR and Persik/Persebaya.

thanks for the heads up!
 
Sure no problem...i love watching Indo footie somehow though i am not local. Persik advanced to the next round as well after beating Persebaya earlier on (not such a fair result looking at the match overall), that was a bit unexpected.
