JAKARTA - The fourth week of the 2024/2025 Liga 1 match on Saturday, September 14, 2024, was closed by the Persita Tangerang vs Persebaya Surabaya party at the Captain I Wayan Dipta Stadium, Bali.

Persebaya managed to steal three points through Brino Moreira's single goal when the game had only been running for 11 minutes.

Persita as the host did appear more dominant. They controlled 68 percent of the ball and successfully fired 22 shots, nine of which were on target.

Persebaya's continuous pressure to the Persebaya defense area was carried out after they fell behind Bajul Ijo's quick goal.

The goal stems from the individual action of Bruno Moreira. With one move to outwit the opposing defender, he then fired a hard shot that Igor Rodrigues failed to anticipate.

The goal made the Cisadane Warriors shrink. They continue to bombard the opponent to find an equalizer.

However, their efforts were deadlocked so that the score 1-0 for Persebaya lasted until halftime.

Entering the second half, Persita thickened the front sector by including Aji Kusuma and Esal Sahrul.

The effort almost resulted in a goal. However, Jack Brown's kick could still be parried by Ernando Ari.

Persebaya who only rely on counter-attacks is not without a chance. Bruno almost doubled the advantage if his shot inside the penalty box was not blocked by Igor Rodrigues.

Entering 20 minutes of normal time, Persebaya did not have a chance. On the other hand, Persita repeatedly created a scoring chance.

However, a number of their efforts to find the goals needed never arrived. Drama had occurred in injury time when the main referee was called VAR to check the potential handball of Bajul Ijo's players in the penalty box.

However, the referee then decided there was no penalty because the ball hit the hand which became the focus when the player fell.

As a result, Persebaya's advantage through Bruno Moreira's single goal lasted until the match was over.
