Persib Bandung Has Conceded 9 Goals At The Start Of Liga 1 2022/2023, Luizinho: Persib Has A Quality Goalkeeper, But...
JAKARTA - Persib Bandung's performance at the beginning of the 2022/2023 Liga 1 season fell. In three matches, the club nicknamed Maung Bandung lost three times.
Even worse, Persib has conceded nine times! The team with the most number of goals conceded in the first three matches of Liga 1 after Barito Putera who has conceded 11 goals.
Persib's defense sector is in the spotlight, including the goalkeepers. In fact, this fact makes the goalkeeper coach, Luizinho Passos, feel sad.
The Brazilian coach admitted that he would conduct an evaluation. He also feels fully responsible for this result.
"Persib have quality goalkeepers, but the situation is different now. Of course this is a difficult time for goalkeepers," said Luizinho on the club's official website.
"I take full responsibility for all this. I also have to fix everything," he continued.
He said the Persib goalkeepers would be given an extra portion of training. It is hoped that the performance of Teja Paku Alam, Fitrul Dwi Rustapa, I Made Wirawan, Reky Rahayu and Satrio Azhar will improve.
"We must help each other to bring Persib out of this difficult situation. I believe we will rise," he concluded.
Persib's defense line will be tested again in the next match. They will face the goal-hungry front row belonging to PSIS Semarang in Bandung, 13 August.
