Persib Overcome Leaders Arema In Thriller
The Indonesian office is a funny place. Mind you, it has been so bloody long since I stepped into a British office I would probably have some kind of culture shock there as well.
Yesterday, anyways, was a case in point. The match of the season would have been the English media hype as Persib hosted Arema.
It certainly proved to be a game and a half...what ever that may mean.
Arema went in at half time 2 up thanks to goals from Samsul Arif and Gustavo Lopez.
Persib however fought back and in some style. Djibril Coulabily, who was courted, signed, released and re-signed pre season, scored on 53 minutes to give Persib a role in the match.
Firman Utina made it 2-2 on 78 minutes and if there is a Bobotoh heaven they found in a few minutes later when Konate Makan finished the remarkable come back, ending Arema's 1005 record and propelling the Bandung outfit to the top of the western division.
As for the office. No one it seemed gave a raspberry cripple. Not until Liverpool against Manchester City came on did anyone show any interest in football.
Odd, eh?!
