League Play-Off

Karombo Stadium
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Kamarudin Handoyo took the kick off in the first half of the match. If Dodik Kusnandar had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 7th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The referee gave Timburu a penalty, 20 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Udung Sunandar, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of PSI Karombo's Winarto Yom. 0-1. The audience was convinced that Kamarudin Handoyo's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Sebastian Sudaryanto was relentless in the 23rd minute of the game. 25 minutes into the match, PSI Karombo's Tommy Sastranegara sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Sebastian Sudaryanto narrowly saved just below the crossbar. In the 26th 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. After 27 played minutes Timburu got a freekick which was hit by Anthony Utomo. In the 29th minute, Tommy Sastranegara ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Sebastian Sudaryanto was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-1. Farid Masduki sent away a hard shot on goal in the 32nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Dodik Kusnandar fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 36th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Winarto Yom having to interfere. A collision led to PSI Karombo getting a freekick after 38 minutes play. Benny Sentosa hit a great ball. 41 minutes into the match, Farid Masduki had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Winarto Yom. PSI Karombo's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Farid Masduki was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. In the 47th 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.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Farid Masduki was the one to do the kick off. Kamarudin Handoyo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 53rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After having played for 54 minutes, Tommy Sastranegara managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. PSI Karombo's supporters crossed their fingers, but Tommy Sastranegara was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 58 minutes into the match, PSI Karombo's goal looked a bit too open when Farid Masduki came free, but Winarto Yom reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 62nd minute, Dodik Kusnandar 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. Idrus Poerwonegoro charged in rather forcefully in the 73rd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Idrus Poerwonegoro the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After a rather tough play, PSI Karombo's Idrus Poerwonegoro got a free kick in the 73rd minute. In the 81st minute Tommy Sastranegara shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Sebastian Sudaryanto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Sebastian Sudaryanto showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Kamarudin Handoyo in the 86th minute of the match. Idrus Poerwonegoro hit a great freekick 87 minutes into the match. 88 minutes into the match, Timburu's Udung Sunandar broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. Tommy Sastranegara sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The Timburu players were the happier at the end of the match as they had prevented PSI Karombo from taking control. The game ends in a draw.
