Barito Putera vs Bhayangkara United
Barito Putera managed to steal important points in Week 18 of League 1 of Indonesia. Wednesday (9/18) they want to achieve full points when competing with Bhayangkara FC. The match was held at Demang Lehman Stadium.
Barito Putera actually had two goals ahead when last week visited the headquarters of Madura Utd. However, negligence in the third half of the second round made the host managed to equalize through Beto Goncalves (76 ‘) and Alesandar Rakic’s penalty (78’). Although disappointed, at least an additional number could help them match Persela Lamongan’s points in 16th place.
The draw also closed the duel between Bhayangkara FC vs Bali Utd. However, the match was even more boring because there were no goals. The host was stuck in rank 11 standings with this result.
To be honest, Bhayangkara FC is actually quite satisfied with yesterday’s draw. The reason is, they did look bad since August, now with 3 draws and 3 defeats. A record as bad as it was predicted would invite disaster in Demang Lehman where they always lost on the last two visits, precisely with a score of 1-0 and 3-1.
Yes, that condition will be utilized by Barito Putera to return to the straight path. As is known, they always lose in the last two home matches when entertaining TIRA Persikabo and Persipura Jayapura. The two teams did indeed look excellent where TIRA Persikabo had always been at the top since the beginning of the competition, while Jayapura Persipura began to rise under the coaching of Jacksen F Tiago.
Victory in this match will be a crucial moment. Because, Barito Putera only three points behind from Bhayangkara FC. Playing at home will certainly be a good opportunity for the host, especially if they had reaped 7 points in 3 matches before the record was stopped by TIRA Persikabo and Persipura Jayapura.
