JAKARTA - Persiraja is determined to beat Persija in the match week 22 of the 2021-2022 Indonesian League 1 in Bali. Until the end of the first half no goals were created.

"Of course when we step onto the field, there is only one goal, which is to win. We give our best to get the maximum result," Persiraja coach Sergio Alexandre said in a virtual press conference before the match, quoted by Antara, Sunday, January 30.

According to the Brazilian tactician, his squad is physically and technically ready to beat the "Tiger Kemayoran" team.

Persiraja is also in good psychological condition after being able to win two draws and one defeat in their last three matches in Liga 1.

"We hope to repeat the positive performance with the same level. The team is now different and we are still fighting with passion," said Sergio.

Regarding Paulo Henrique, Sergio said that the striker who had scored six goals was still recovering from injury.

The condition must be confirmed first before being given the green light to graze. Henrique last competed for Persiraja on January 7, 2022, when Persiraja were beaten by PSS with a score of 1-4.

"Paulo is still under the supervision of the team doctor," said Sergio.

In line with his coach, Persiraja midfielder Muhammad Rifaldi also emphasized that his team is ready to serve Persija's game.

Three points became the target even though Rifaldi realized it was not easy to achieve it. The "Laskar Rencong" team players, he continued, were ready to avenge the defeat of Persija in the first round.

At that time, on October 2, 2021, Persiraja bowed 0-1 to Persija thanks to a penalty goal from striker Marko Simic.

"I think the motivation of the players is high enough to avenge the defeat in the first round," said the 25-year-old.

The Persija-Persiraja match will be held at the I Gusti Ngurah Rai Stadium, Denpasar, Bali, starting at 16.30 WIB.

Persija is now in sixth place in the 2021-2022 Indonesian League 1 standings with a collection of 32 points from 21 matches.

There is also Persiraja in the bottom position or 18 standings because they have only earned eight points from 21 matches.
