TANGERANG - There was a riot during the Indonesian League 1 title match that brought PSIS Semarang together against Persis Solo at the Jatidiri Stadium, Semarang on Friday, February 17. The riots took place outside the Laskar Mahesa Jenar pride stadium.

The VOI team tried to directly confirm the riots related to the riots at the PSIS Semarang match against Persis Solo to Erick Thohir, the elected chairman of PSSI. However, the man who also serves as Minister of BUMN was reluctant to answer and avoid being chased by journalists.

"There's a short time, okay," said Erick at ICE BSD, Tangerang Regency, Friday, February 17.

Chronological Riots

To note, the match titled Derby Central Java was indeed held without spectators based on a joint decision from the Organizing Committee, PSIS management and Persis and police officers. However, a number of the home fans wanted to see their favorite team compete in the stadium.

The riot started with a strong protest by PSIS supporters who forced their way into the Jatidiri Stadium because the match was held behind closed doors for the audience.

Thousands of masses of PSIS Semarang supporters surrounded the entrance to the Jatidiri Stadium. The masses of PSIS supporters from the Blue Panzer and Snex groups demanded that the Executing Committee allow them to support their favorite team directly.

In addition to screaming, the supporters threw Rantis Police cars that blocked access to the stadium entrance with stones and bottles.

The decision to carry out the match without spectators itself is a joint decision from the Organizing Committee, PSIS management and Persis and police officers. This step was taken as an effort to anticipate the occurrence of riots between supporters.
