Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, 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. Syaiful Hudaya started the match with the kick off. If Raihan Wijanarko had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 8th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Jahfal Sumarwoto recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 11th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 13 minutes into the match, Indarung FC's goal looked a bit too open when Syaiful Hudaya came free, but Marzuki Alatas reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

With an extended leg and a bit of luck Marzuki Alatas prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Memed Budikusuma scored 0-1 in the 16th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Marzuki Alatas, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Raihan Wijanarko to make the kick off. Immanuel Sujana thought of kicking away a contribution in front of goal but messed it up so badly that the ball went to the right of an astonished Guruh Jamaluddin, a very annoying self made goal in the 51st minute which led to 1-2. When Memed Budikusuma came up free with the goalie in the 55th minute, the Pasirtalang 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 Memed Budikusuma couldn't finish the play. Memed Budikusuma succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-3 in the 60th playminute. The attack was good, but when Memed Budikusuma in the 64th minute was about to shoot he didn't kick quite good enough and the ball went high over goal. If Syaiful Hudaya had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Memed Budikusuma got free with Marzuki Alatas in the 77th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After a defensive mix-up in Indarung FC's zone, Memed Budikusuma stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Marzuki Alatas came out of the goal and Memed Budikusuma tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Memed Budikusuma sent away a hard shot on goal in the 85th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

Guruh Jamaluddin dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-3. A collision led to Indarung FC getting a freekick after 94 minutes play. Zulfikar Yudhoyono hit a great ball. In the last second Marzuki Alatas throw himself and got hold of the ball when Syaiful Hudaya in the 95thth minute from his position got away a shot towards the right post.
