JAKARTA - PSIS Semarang managed to get the full three points when they hosted PSBS Biak at the Madya Magelang Stadium on Friday, August 23, 2024. In the third week of Liga 1 2024/2025, PSIS won through the single goal of Gali Freitas.

With the status of being the host, PSIS Semarang did not necessarily excel easily. The reason is, their movement is quite difficult for PSBS Biak players.

Until the 30th minute, several opportunities were obtained by both teams, but no one was able to produce goals. Laskar Mahesa Jenar is more dominant in possession of the ball, creating chances, and shooting on target. However, until halftime the match still lasted 0-0.

There has been no significant change in the second half. PSIS Semarang and PSBS Biak played quite cautiously to prevent conceding.

Paulo Gali Freitas tried to endanger the PSBS Biak goal with a direct shot in the 55th minute. However, the ball still soared so that it did not produce the first point for Laskar Mahesa Jenar.

The Pacific storm was only able to return to spread threats through Lugo's pass in the 61st minute. The advantage for PSIS Semarang is that the movement of the PSBS Biak players is able to be stopped.

PSIS actively launched the onslaught six minutes later. However, John Pigai was so good at securing the ball to prevent conceding.

The breakthrough was finally successfully created by PSIS Semarang in the 71st minute. Paulo Gali Freitas showed a slick performance by completing Ryan Ardiansyah's pass from a tight angle to rip Pigai's net and score 1-0.

PSBS Biak who were in a behind position got a chance of a free kick in the 75th minute. Pablo Abel was sent as the executor to try to equalize, but his shot still missed the target.

No additional goals were created in the final 15 minutes of normal time matches. The additional four minutes of injury time failed to be maximized so that the 1-0 score lasted until dispersal.
