PSPI Pasar Ikan – Highman FC | 19-08-2006 09.00
Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Estadio del Pasar
Ikan saw a crowd turnout of 12000. Pasar had chosen a strategic 4-4-2
formation. Starters: Suwondo - Sanusi, Dian, Syaiful, Kristiawan - Gani,
Rungkat, Kusnan, Bahroji - Sahdan, Malaiholo.
Highman decided to use a 4-5-1 set up. Lineup: Jurjani - Manik, Pinem,
Kurnia, Malaranggeng - Bramantiko, Schwartz, Sunyoto, Kamri, Mashudi -
Kopouw.
Today, Pasar's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their
attacks. Pasar had a good opportunity to take the lead as Marwal Leo
Kristiawan came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it
went straight into the arms of Hadi Jurjani. Yanto Mashudi finished off
the counterattack from the left rather easily, scoring 0 - 1 for
Highman. Highman's Ucok Baa Manik made it through the home team's
defence on the right hand side in the 33:th minute. After rounding the
keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded goal when a
defender sprang up, clearing the ball on the line. In the 37:th minute,
Pasar's Yulianto Dian made a rush down the left, leaving him free to put
the 1 - 1 equaliser away. Pasar fans held their breath as Chairil
Syaiful scampered down the left side. He successfully avoided all
challenges and cracked home the go-ahead goal for 2-1! It was 2 - 1 at
the break. Pasar claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and
the statistics agreed with them - possession being 60 percent.
59 minutes into the game, Pasar were awarded a penalty that Reagan Gani
turned into 3 - 1 without a problem. The structure of the game started
to change as Pasar decided to pull back and meet their opponents in
their own half. 62 minutes into the game, Seto Pinem had to leave the
pitch due to a knee injury. In came Amir Aspiran. Syiful Bahroji of
Pasar received a yellow card in the 67:th minute for unsportsmanlike
behaviour. Pasar enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 67 percent
of possession.
Hadi Sahdan performed admirably for Pasar. Marani Suwondo turned in a
dismal performance, however. Yanto Mashudi performed admirably for
Highman. Amir Aspiran turned in a dismal performance, however. The match
ends 3 - 1.
