PSPI Pasar Ikan – TEMPE BONGKREK FC | 24-06-2006 09.00
A brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 12000 to Estadio del
Pasar Ikan. Pasar had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following
players took the field: Suwondo - Dharmadji, Hutahean, Dian, Kristiawan
- Gani, Kustiana, Kusnan, Pane - Sahdan, Malaiholo.
BONGKREK started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been
chosen: Yodbangtoey - Budianto, Saelan, Prinsen, Sudiro - Wiranto,
Pasaribu, Pastoor, Newman - Muresan, Tarigan.
For their match strategy, BONGKREK had decided to use their ability to
counter-attack whenever possible. It wasn't a pretty goal, but the 2:th
minute free kick by Reagan Gani somehow found its way past the keeper.
Pasar takes the lead, 1-0! With 20 minutes played, Irwan Malaiholo could
have brought this one home for Pasar as he charged up on the left, but
his hooked ball went just a bit too high. 36 minutes into the game,
Christophe Pastoor finished off a left wing counter attack, scoring 1 -
1 for BONGKREK. Christophe Pastoor of BONGKREK received a yellow card in
the 37:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The left side created an
opportunity for the visitors in the 38:th minute, and Yandy Pasaribu
wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot
that the keeper just missed. 1 - 2 for the visitors. A quick breakout
from defence by BONGKREK forced the opponent's defender to give away a
freekick. Gandring Budianto was allowed to take it quickly by the
referee, much to the dismay of the goalkeeper who wasn't prepared. 1 -
3! Confident in their lead, BONGKREK decided to play a more defensive
game at this point. 41 minutes into the game, Christian Hutahean had to
leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came Chairil Syaiful. 1 - 3 was
the halftime score. Pasar claimed to be the more dominant force in the
game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 59 percent.
Alexandru Muresan finished off the counterattack from the left rather
easily, scoring 1 - 4 for BONGKREK. In the 60:th minute, seemingly due
to lack of experience, Marwal Leo Kristiawan needlessly tripped an
opponent just outside the penalty area, but the free kick that followed
didn't succeed. Pasar claimed to be the more dominant force in the game,
and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 65 percent.
Most important Pasar player was Yulianto Dian. On the other hand, Marwal
Leo Kristiawan's play was disheartening. The most dominating BONGKREK
player was without a doubt Gert-Jan Prinsen. Alexandru Muresan on the
other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 4.
