What people are saying
First, we knew we were playing at home. We also did not want to lose at home in front of our own supporters.
I apologise to Jakmania because we could not entertain them with our play tonight.
Persik are a team with very good pressing ability. They are also able to maintain good distances between their lines.
I hope today’s security arrangements can proceed safely, peacefully and smoothly.
