JAKARTA - Two matches for the 25th week of Liga 1 2023/2024 will be completed on Thursday, February 22, 2024, at 15.00 WIB. Borneo FC is getting stronger at the top of the standings, while Bhayangkara FC is getting worse in the relegation zone.

Being a visiting team at the I Wayan Dipta stadium, Gianyar, Borneo FC faced Persikabo 1973 who was the host. Having been left behind in the first half, Pesut Etam was able to turn things around early in the second half.

Persikabo 1973 appeared to open the scoring first with an effort that was not easy. Aji Santoso's team could only convert attacks into goals in the 36th minute through Pedro's feet.

Persikabo's 1973 advantage could not be matched by Pesut Etam until halftime. The score was 1-0 up for the home team.

After the break, it was Borneo FC's turn to prove strength. Unmitigated, two goals were immediately bombarded against Husna Al Malik. Borneo made the lead to turn 2-1 through the execution of Felipe Cadenazzi (54 ) and Stefano Lilipaly (55).

Not satisfied with the changing counter-attack, Borneo FC continued to dominate with their third goal. The score became 3-1 for Pesut Etam after Adam Alis scored in the 74th minute.

However, Persikabo could reduce the gap. Laskar Padjajaran scored the second goal in the 84th minute through Dimas Drajat which made the score change to 2-3.

Unfortunately, the attempt to equalize failed. The 3-2 score for Borneo lasted until the game was over.

The three points at home to Persikabo made Borneo FC stronger at the top of the standings with a collection of 57 points. Meanwhile, the defeat put Persikabo stuck in 17th position, which is a relegation zone with 17 points.

The complicated situation that Persikabo 1973 received was also felt by Bhayangkara FC who appeared as the host at the PTIK Stadium, South Jakarta. Facing PSS Sleman, The Guardian must receive bitter results because they lost three points again.

Bhayangkara FC's efforts to get up and away from relegation are running low because they lost 1-4 to PSS Sleman. Failing to win made Bhayangkara occupy the caretaker position with a collection of 15 points.

Meanwhile, the three points achieved by the Javanese Super Eagles make them now 12th with 30 points.
