Kuwukan Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Kamarudin Handoyo kicked off to start the match. Kemal Hutasoit received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 3rd minute. Winarto Yom tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Tommy Sastranegara struck a weak shot in the 5th minute. Sophan Zayyinulhak didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for PSI Karombo. After 9 played minutes Kuwukan FC got a freekick which was hit by Abadi Tarusbawa. Tommy Sastranegara recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 10th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Kuwukan FC's Sophan Zayyinulhak played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Idrus Poerwonegoro in the 12th minute of play. If Kamarudin Handoyo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 16th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 18th minute, Komang Hutagalung hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Abadi Tarusbawa hit a great freekick 19 minutes into the match. Tommy Sastranegara received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 20th minute. Sophan Zayyinulhak tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 24 minutes into the match, Kuwukan FC's goal looked a bit too open when Tommy Sastranegara came free, but Sophan Zayyinulhak reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. When Dudin Dewantara came up free with the goalie in the 25th minute, the PSI Karombo fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Dudin Dewantara couldn't finish the play. Winarto Yom showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Anton Sugianto in the 30th minute of the match. Winarto Yom made a fantastic save in the 31st minute, when Kemal Hutasoit sent off a good shot on target. In the 37th minute, Kamarudin Handoyo 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. 0-1 became the score in the 39th minute when Kamarudin Handoyo elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Fandi Eibe kicked well hit freekick during the 44th minute of the match. In the 48th minute Tommy Sastranegara shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Sophan Zayyinulhak saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After the first half PSI Karombo were leading 0-1. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The wind increased when Anton Sugianto made the kick off in the second half. With a little luck, Kuwukan FC's Sophan Zayyinulhak got control of the ball when Tommy Sastranegara tried to sneak it across the goal line. After a rather tough play, PSI Karombo's Idrus Poerwonegoro got a free kick in the 54th minute. Kuwukan FC's Abadi Tarusbawa suffered a concussion in the 60th minute, after a hard challenge, and had to leave the field. 60 minutes into the game, Galih Saepuloh was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. PSI Karombo's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Kuwukan FC the free kick. Galih Saepuloh kicked well hit freekick during the 61st minute of the match. Winarto Yom showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Kemal Hutasoit, who was totally free with the ball in the 64th minute. Winarto Yom took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Kemal Hutasoit, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Tommy Sastranegara had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Idrus Poerwonegoro fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 72nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sophan Zayyinulhak having to interfere. The supporters of Kuwukan FC booed when PSI Karombo was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 73 match minutes in a wonderful position. Muchsin Martadi didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 76th minute, Kemal Hutasoit 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. PSI Karombo's Winarto Yom played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Daniel Sutowo in the 78th minute of play. Kemal Hutasoit received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 80th minute. Winarto Yom tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Winarto Yom came out of the goal in the 84th minute to try and stop a shot by Kuwukan FC's Kemal Hutasoit. But to his dismay, Kemal Hutasoit quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. Kemal Hutasoit might have been able to make a better finish in the 88th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Winarto Yom. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Kemal Hutasoit ran back to his position shaking his head. When Tommy Sastranegara came up free with the goalie in the 93rd minute, the PSI Karombo fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Tommy Sastranegara couldn't finish the play. Kamarudin Handoyo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 94th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sophan Zayyinulhak having to interfere. The final whistle blew with the score still tied, and both teams left the pitch thinking about the missed chances that could have given their team the win.
