Jerdera Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Krisna Prastika kicked off to start the match. Krisna Prastika sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. 5 minutes into the match, Cigaling FC's goalkeeper Awang Suebu had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Benny Basri. I Made Soebandono showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Oka Pradnyana in the 6th minute of the match. Awang Suebu made an important save on a dangerous shot by Benny Basri in the 10th minute. Krisna Prastika sent away a hard shot on goal in the 17th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Krisna Prastika took the ball and in the 19 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Awang Suebu. Awang Suebu dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-0. When Romi Prastika came up free with the goalie in the 23rd minute, the Cigaling FC 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 Romi Prastika couldn't finish the play. In the 30th minute Krisna Prastika shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Awang Suebu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. I Made Soebandono didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Romi Prastika went, in the 45th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-1 was the resulting score. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Oka Pradnyana was the one to do the kick off. Romi Prastika's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but I Made Soebandono read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 52nd minute of play. After a rather tough play, Putra Jerdera's Nadjib Tomagola got a free kick in the 52nd minute. Romi Prastika received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. I Made Soebandono tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 55th minute Oka Pradnyana shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but I Made Soebandono saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Anwar Wiranata kicked well hit freekick during the 61st minute of the match. Awang Suebu stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Benny Basri's shot from short distance in the 68th minute. Awang Suebu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Krisna Prastika, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Benny Basri had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 73rd minute, Benny Basri ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Awang Suebu was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-2. In the 76th minute Krisna Prastika shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Awang Suebu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Giring Sumpena hit a great freekick 78 minutes into the match. Cigaling FC's Oka Pradnyana got a good chance for a goal in the 80th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. I Made Soebandono showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Oka Pradnyana, who was totally free with the ball in the 82nd minute. In the 88th minute the ball was on its way in behind Putra Jerdera's goalkeeper I Made Soebandono, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Jeers came from both ends of the stadium when the final whistle went. Neither team had looked impressive and the draw seeemd a fair result.
