PSIM through in the cup
A 1‑0 win over Maluku Utara United, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Adi Satryo will not be coming to PSIM
Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Arema is saying, and nobody at PSIM is enjoying the guessing.

Words exchanged at PSIM
Franco Ramos Mingo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Persib tell PSIM: Alfeandra Dewangga is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Zé Valente the difference as PSIM beat PSBS Biak
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Zé Valente. 2‑0 against PSBS Biak, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Ninety minutes of Deri Corfe at his very best
Marked 8.39. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at PSIM.

One of those days for Anton Fase
There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.23, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

A row about effort at PSIM
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Rio Hardiawan was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

PSIM's travelling support get something back at PSBS Biak
They paid twice — for the ticket and for the journey — and got a 2-0 win for it. Away support is the truest kind precisely because nothing about it is convenient.
