Squad

Sonny Stevens keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Dewa United may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Vico in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Dewa United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

When it matters, Ivar Jenner plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market

Mayed Muhsin hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Dewa United can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Noah Sadaoui in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Dewa United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Alexis Messidoro runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 36. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings

Noah Sadaoui scores twice — 8.38

Two goals and a mark of 8.38 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

Sonny Stevens pulls a muscle — 16 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 16 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad

Vico in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Dewa United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Damion Lowe falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Dewa United see off Persijap

Three points for Dewa United, 2‑1 the final word against Persijap in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

When it matters, Ivar Jenner plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market

The window shut and Ady Setiawan is still in the building

Dewa United spent a month trying to move him and nobody rang back. He trains with a squad that has told him where he stands, and both sides start counting down to the next one.

Market

The Theo Numberi talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Dewa United know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Alexis Messidoro

Successful dribbles: 40. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

The cup run ends for Dewa United

5‑5 against Bali United, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Player ratings

Both of them Noah Sadaoui's — 8.14

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.14, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

The terraces

Dewa United sell a favourite for $120.0K

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Yofandani Pranata was one of the reasons people came, and $120.0K does not replace that by itself.

Squad

Vico in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Dewa United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

10 goals as Dewa United and Bali United go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 10 goals between Dewa United and Bali United, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Market

Dewa United sell Yofandani Pranata for $120.0K

Yofandani Pranata has left for PSM in a $120.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Damion Lowe

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Egy Maulana Vikri

Marked 8.18 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
