Persebaya Surabaya Still Has A Chance To Become Indonesian League 1 Champion, Aji Santoso: Focus On Winning Against Peach
GIANYAR - The coach of Persebaya Surabaya, Aji Santoso, admitted that his team still has a chance to win the Indonesian League 1. However, the chance is fairly slim.
For that, Aji did not want his foster children to think about it. He asked the Persebaya squad to focus on winning the match against Persik Kediri, Thursday, March 10, afternoon WIB.
Aji said the chances of winning were slim after Persebaya was held to a draw by Persita in the previous match. Now, Persebaya's chance to become a champion also depends on the results of other clubs.
"There is still (opportunity) but it depends on the results of other teams. Right now I emphasize on the children to focus on winning against Persik," said Aji in the club's official website.
Persebaya must be vigilant. Peach is in great shape lately. Javier Roca's team are unbeaten in their last three matches. Peach spearhead, Youssef Ezzejjari, also deserves extra attention.
"The players are ready. We have prepared anticipation to face Persik, which is currently on the rise. An evaluation of the last game has also been carried out," said Aji.
Aji said that the most important thing for Persebaya now is to win every game. If you can't win, at least you can compete in second, third or fourth position.
"Anyway, above the target imposed by management at the beginning," said the coach of Persebaya Surabaya.
