Since the first half started, Madura tried to take the initiative of the attack. Efforts to pressure the opponent's defense were carried out from the early minutes, but PSBS Biak was entertained with an open game so that there was a trade of attacks.
Until the first 15 minutes, there were no chances for both teams. In the 16th minute, Madura was able to create an opportunity, but it couldn't become a goal.
Attack after attack continued, but the solidity of the PSBS Biak defense made the host team's various efforts always succeed in driving off the opposing team.
The second opportunity came in the 28th minute through Lulinha's kick, but the ball still hit the crossbar.
From the guest team, the opportunity was created in the 45th plus 2 minute, through a counterattack scheme but the ball hit the crossbar of Madura United so it failed to score. Until halftime, the score remained 0-0.
Entering the second half, the visiting team looked more dominant. Two minutes in, in the 47th minute, PSBS Biak was able to create an opportunity through Yanu Putra's kick, but was still able to be blocked by Madura United FC goalkeeper Diky Indrayana.
Madura tried to turn the tide by intensifying the attack. The tempo of the game seemed to be getting higher, and the fierce duel in the midfield was many times until the 60th minute.
In the 67th minute, Madura was able to create an opportunity through a kick from Iran Junior, but the ball hit the crossbar so it could not be converted into a goal. Until the final whistle sounded as a sign that the second half ended, no goals were created and the score remained 0-0.
Madura United coach Carlos Eduardo Biasi Parreir said his team had tried to present the best game, by trying to create opportunities, but could not score, because the guest team's defensive pattern was very neat.
