Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Kahlil Mamuaya made the kick off which started today's match. Avanti Dewantara's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Gery Bagjanata read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 3rd minute of play. The referee felt a red card was in order, 7 minutes into the game, when Kahlil Widagdo put in a rough tackle. In the 6th minute, one of PSS Candihowo:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for PSS Candihowo. Sulis Wiriadipura fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 11th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Agung De Weerd having to interfere. When Frans Sungkar fell near the penalty area in the 20th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored PSS Candihowo's protests and gave Frans Sungkar a yellow card for diving instead. In the 29th minute, Marzuki De Weerd hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Kahlil Mamuaya had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Igus Hasudungan might have been able to make a better finish in the 38th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gery Bagjanata. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Igus Hasudungan ran back to his position shaking his head. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Kirun Siregar during the 41st minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a rather tough play, Manalu's Kirun Siregar got a free kick in the 41st minute.

PSS Candihowo's supporters rose to their feet, but Bulek Wiranatakusumah was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Gery Bagjanata breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.

Gery Bagjanata took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Igus Hasudungan, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
