League Play-Off

Boesi Stadion
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Freddy Rumbewas started the match with the kick off. In the 4th minute, Lengkobale's Duta Sudaryono seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Duta Sudaryono the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Lengkobale protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Duta Sudaryono had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. After 3 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Lengkobale! In the 9th minute, Darius Pattimura got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. With his leg Tono Waworuntu managed to avoid a goal in the 11thth minute, when Boesi's Darius Pattimura fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Darius Pattimura could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 16th minute of the match, but Tono Waworuntu made a huge save. A collision led to Lengkobale getting a freekick after 17 minutes play. Christian Yulianto hit a great ball. 22 minutes into the game, Krisna Simanjuntak was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Lengkobale's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Boesi the free kick. Tono Waworuntu had in the 23rdth minute some difficulties stopping Widhie Kurniawan's well aimed penalty as it nearly passed him on his left side, but he still managed to hold the ball. In the 24th minute the ball was on its way in behind Lengkobale's goalkeeper Tono Waworuntu, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Lengkobale's Hanafi Surahman got a free kick in the 32nd minute. If Darius Pattimura had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 35th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Tono Waworuntu made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mourent Wahyudi in the 37th minute of play. Manuel Muzakki recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 40th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 44 minutes in the game, the ball went up into the seats when Boesi's Manuel Muzakki fired away a shot that was just a little bit too high. He walked away shaking his head. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 1-0.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Manuel Muzakki made a kick off. Tono Waworuntu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Darius Pattimura in the 66th minute of the match. After 68 played minutes Lengkobale got a freekick which was hit by Lukman Pangkali. After having played for 71 minutes, Darius Pattimura managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Boesi's supporters crossed their fingers, but Darius Pattimura was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Lengkobale's zone, Manuel Muzakki stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Tono Waworuntu came out of the goal and Manuel Muzakki tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 76 minutes into the match, Lengkobale's goal looked a bit too open when Manuel Muzakki came free, but Tono Waworuntu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 82 minutes into the match, Boesi's Gatot Hartono sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Tono Waworuntu narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Tono Waworuntu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Manuel Muzakki, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 91st minute Manuel Muzakki shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tono Waworuntu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Manuel Muzakki might have been able to make a better finish in the 94th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Tono Waworuntu. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Manuel Muzakki ran back to his position shaking his head. Boesi's supporters were highly satisfied with the result. They cheered their team of the pitch, having watched them win a very even match.
