The most recent game week of Liga 1 has been full of surprises, as PS TIRA-Persikabo earned a big loss that made Bali United\u2019s chance to be mid-season champions greater. Elsewhere, many other big clubs also got poor results before the first half of the league wraps up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n

A Bitter Gift from Ex<\/b><\/p>\n

Jacksen F. Tiago, who returned to the Demang Lehman Stadium, gave a bitter gift to his ex-club for last three years, Barito Putera. In front of a thousand Bartman who watch the game, his side scored four goals into <\/span>Laskar Pangeran Antasari<\/span><\/i>\u2019s net. This win also helped Persipura Jayapura remain unbeaten for four consecutive games since Jacksen's arrival, and they have since risen to the 8<\/span>th<\/span> position with 20 points.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Run Out of Fuel, <\/b>Daeng<\/i><\/b>?<\/b><\/p>\n

PSS Sleman's game against PSM Makassar might go down as the most entertaining of the week. After leading by two goals, <\/span>Juku Eja<\/span><\/i> were shocked with three that <\/span>Super Elja<\/span><\/i> managed to score, with two of them going through Rivky Mokodompit\u2019s net in the last 10 minutes. This loss was PSM Makassar third in their last five, while the win helped PSS maintain their position in the top five.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Marko the Croatian Tiger<\/b><\/p>\n

A draw in a classic match between Persebaya Surabaya against Persija Jakarta last Saturday again demonstrated Macan Kemayoran\u2019s dependency of Marko Simic. The ex Croatia U-21 striker has already netted 12 goals in 12 games for them, which has accounted for\u00a0 75% of their total goals so far this season. So, how about Persija\u2019s fate if one day Marko injured?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Alex Goncalves Gets the Better of Laskar Padjajaran<\/b><\/p>\n

After earning their first loss of the season a few weeks ago PS TIRA-Persikabo have now suffered a critical hit after their loss against Persela Lamongan in Surajaya Stadium on Sunday, as the home side won their last home game before mid-season. <\/span>Laskar Padjajaran,<\/span><\/i> who lost some key players during the national team preparation conceded six goals, with three of them being scored by the league's leading goalscorer Alex Goncalves, who took his tally to 15 goals. The only goal that they could score into <\/span>Laskar Joko Tingkir<\/span><\/i>\u2019s net was scored by ex-Persela striker Loris Arnaud.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Serdadu Tridatu\u2019s Divine Record<\/b><\/p>\n

A 2-1 winning over Arema maintained Bali United lead over the league with a total of 37 points. Ilija Spasojevic and his colleagues have now recorded seven consecutive wins, breaking a record held by Bhayangkara FC (in 2017) and PSM Makassar (in 2018). Bali United have also won all eight of their home games this season. So can they break the myth that the mid-season champions can\u2019t be the league champions?<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
