Beat PSM Makssar 3-0, Brace Ciro Alves Take Persikabo Away From The Relegation Zone

JAKARTA - Week 25 of Liga 1 2021/2022 successfully belonged to Persikabo, which was finally able to move away from the relegation zone. The moment was achieved by Laskar Padjajaran after securing victory against PSM Makassar.

Appearing at Kompyang Sujana Stadium, Bali on Tuesday, February 15 afternoon, Persikabo was able to overthrow Juku Eja with a landslide score of 3-0.

The achievement of three points was inseparable from Ciro Alves' brace contribution and was closed by a slick execution from Aleksandar Rakic before the long whistle.

In the match against PSM, Persikabo really appeared with high pressure against the opposing team. It was proven that Liestiadi's team immediately stepped on the gas pedal deeply by appearing dominant in the early period of the match.

Laskar Padjadjaran's efforts to score the advantage did not go smoothly. He repeatedly fired shots at the goal but the PSM goalkeeper managed to deny it.

Only in the 26th minute Persikabo's efforts bore fruit, Ciro Alves managed to become the star of the team's victory because of the two goals he contributed in this match. The Brazilian player started the scoring in the 26th minute which then brought Persikabo 1-0 up in the first half.

Entering the second round, PSM did not want to just give up. Many times, Joop Gall's team looked for loopholes to catch up. But their efforts have not been fruitful.

Instead, Persikabo can increase the advantage to 2-0. This time, Ciro Alves scored again when the game was running for 46 minutes. This advantage makes Laskar Padjadjaran more optimistic about securing three points.

Towards the end of the match, Dewi Fortuna again sided with Persikabo. Because after winning two goals, they again scored the third goal through Aleksandar Rakic in the 83rd minute which was also the decisive victory in this match.

The two braces made by Ciro Alves in this match further added to his score as one of the top scorers in Liga 1. Because from this match he scored 16 goals with the team, where that number is only one point apart from Ilija Spasojevic who sits at the top.

Apart from Ciro Alves' slick nick, this victory over PSM also made the Padjadjaran army get three full points to leave the relegation zone. By collecting 27 points, Persikabo left Barito Putera who was one strip from the red zone.
