Arema FC continued the winning trend in the 2022/2023 Liga 1 competition after beating Persita Tangerang. Arema FC won with a score of 2-0 over Persita when the two teams faced off at the Solo Manahan Stadium, Saturday, December 17.
In this match, two of Singo Edan's winning goals were scored by Jayus Hariono (41) and Dedik Setiawan (56th minute).
This is Singo Edan's fourth consecutive victory since Liga 1 was rolled out again after the Jakarta Malang tragedy. Previously, they beat Persikabo 1973, Persis Solo and Dewa United.
Arema FC coach Javier Roca said he was grateful his team was able to win the match against Persita. Understandably, he was worried because the opponents he faced were known to be strong with good individuals.
However, Roca said, the Arema FC players had carried out their duties well so that the team could win the match.
"This victory is for Aremania and Aremanita in Malang," said Roca, after the match, as quoted by Antara.
Meanwhile, Persita Tangerang coach Angel Afredo Vera said his team had played well to find victory by continuing to press. However, he had to admit, the opponent made a quick counter-attack that could break into his team's defense.
"The team could not score even though they were already struggling. Players have played well, but have not been able to score. However, the opposing team has a chance to score," said Afredo.
