Ok, after long hiatus, finally some updates

Sorry for not updating this blog for awhile, i had no idea what i supposed to write, because the team really has nothing to write about. But anyway, today we will see a judgement day for the coach, we havent scored for the past three games, home and away. I dont think it reflects our midfield, because they worked really hard, it just the finishing that is lacking. I will update you later with the result after the game, from the stadium right away!

Draw with the minnows...

Another unconvincing result from the team, after it was held draw by Persik Kendal 1-1 on friendly game, Rumba scored first in the 3th minute of the first half before Kendal leveled 10 minutes afterwards. There is this gap between the first and second team, which Bonggo as a coach must fix before the season starts...

Another draw + Another luck

Just as i expected, the team played draw with PSIR rembang. First half went very chaotic, some wrong pass and misunderstanding between the players. Thirty minutes into the first half. rembang should have been scored, but they did not. Despite numerous shots and attack like a tsunami, the score remain the same for the first half.

In the second half, semarang replaced a few players, the old man Indriyanto was replaced by their newly signing import, Peter Kwoh, and it works. On the 60th minutes, Imral scored after receiving a good pass from Peter, which he just nicely run inside the box and putted the ball on the left corner side of the goal. However, that lead is only temporary, because after Semarang saw one of the player red carded because of silly tackle from behind, the rembang warriors started their fearsome attack again, which finally sees them scoring on the 87th minutes from a long shoot outside the penalty box. And the score remains the same until the referees blow the whistle to end the game. 1-1.

Still lot of things to do, the 2nd string is pretty much messed up, player understanding is still very poor, i hope they will do well in the next friendly. Which is in semarang against PSCS cilacap, the team that has just beaten PSS sleman few days ago.

You will never know the future......

Back in 2006, the day when PSIS reached the final of Liga djarum Indonesia, there was this player, named Julian Kusuma. He was one of the rising star in the team, Sutan Harhara, ex PSIS coach at that time considered him as a very talented player. In the match between PSIS vs PSMS, he was playing in the second half and boy, he did not disappointed me. His pass, skill and vision towards the game just above average for player in his age. I am not exaggerating this, because even all his team mates at that time said the same thing on newspaper. Anyway, before the end of the season in 2006, he was injured. a player from Persib bandung tackled and made him broke his leg, it was a nasty challenge. I still remember that, Usep Munandar, the player who caused him injured even visited Julian at the hospital, saying sorry and stuff. But its all too late for Julian, he simply traumatized and really affected his confidence, as he was still very young.

Then, when i was searching about him on the internet, trying to fill up my expectation and curiosity of his whereabouts, Gosh, I am in shocked !. You may think, he is now playing for other football clubs and scoring goals already. Well, he is.....NOT, according to this news, he is now officially a singer! he just launched his first album and looking forward on his future as a musician. All i can say now to him, i regretted his decision for giving up his football future, as he have the skills and intelligent vision for a midfield player, but maybe singing is the best thing for him, for that, I would like to say, good luck to you Julian, one of my fav PSIS player in 2005-2006.

why defensive when nothing to gain?

Just now, i finished watching the game on tv, the Indonesia vs Uruguay match. I am disappointed, not with the result, but with how we played. We all know this was just a friendly match, or exhibition like what they always said.  Then, why on earth we played in defensive mode? and what with the long pass? should we play one-touch pass? as we don't have the advantage of being "tall" ? even more disappointing is the fact that bambang was booed by the end of his match. I mean common guys, give this guy some respect. Yes, he is a slow player, but what would you expect if a striker don't get assist or any ball from the midfield? which i think, the midfield were busy defending at the back and missing the point of a friendly match, as we should use this opportunity to be offensive not in defensive. How many goals you SCORED is MORE important than how many goals you received. Anyway,  my final words,  i hope and sure the coach and team earned anything from this match, well hopefully.

And divisi utama is delayed again (and again)

Just read the news, the divisi utama, Indonesia's second division league is being delayed again, the date has been rescheduled again to 30 of October 2010, here is the news

In positive note, this mean the team will have more time for another friendly match....

First blood...

As a first blood for this blog, yesterday the team went to kudus for a second friendly match. This was the opportunity for persiku kudus to make a "revenge" after the first game that was being held in Semarang, they lost three nil to PSIS. Indeed, they were, first half saw another attack after another into PSIS half line, but our defense was just really too strong for them. Its stays 0-0 after the referees blow the whistle on the second half. When asked by Suara merdeka news after the game, if the coach was playing all defense in his tactic, Bonggo pribadi did not denied it. "Its good to play defense in a away match, so this is the best time to test them". The team now is going to rembang for another friendly before they host PSCS cilacap in Jatidiri semarang
