Squad14 Jun 2027

Asyraq Gufron keeps the receipts

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

Squad14 Jun 2027

Fantamady Diarra 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.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Fantamady Diarra gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Tempers go at Semen Padang

Ripal Wahyudi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market14 Jun 2027

Ripal Wahyudi told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Ripal Wahyudi has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Semen Padang.

Match12 Jun 2027

Semen Padang and Persik take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Boubakary Diarra damages knee ligaments — 112 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 112 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Tempers go at Semen Padang

Jaime Giraldo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Words at Semen Padang training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Fantamady Diarra is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Ravy Tsouka breaks a bone — 99 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 99 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Fantamady Diarra 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Kianz Froese runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match12 Sep 2026

A bad afternoon for Semen Padang against Persija

0‑1 to Persija, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Ângelo Meneses

“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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

When it matters, Wahyu Agong 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Wahyu Agong never got going

5.53 on the card. Some afternoons a footballer looks like a man who has only just been introduced to the game, and this was one of them.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Off the pace: Kasim Botan

A mark of 5.63 tells the story without any need for embellishment. He will want the tape of this one quietly lost.

Market14 Sep 2026

Zidane Afandi leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Zidane Afandi leaves Semen Padang the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.

Market24 Aug 2026

The unthinkable, invoiced: Achmad Iqbal Bachtiar sold

Persis arrived with $150.0K and left with the best player in the building. The board will call it business; the queue at the ticket office will use other words.

Match19 Aug 2026

Semen Padang march on in the cup

Bali United are out and Semen Padang go through, 1‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A fracture rules Ghifari Azhhari out for 32 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Semen Padang will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Arthur Augusto decides it from twelve yards

1 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Market24 Aug 2026

Asyraq Gufron 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 Semen Padang can pretend not to have heard.

The terraces24 Aug 2026

Supporters turn on the $150.0K sale of Achmad Iqbal Bachtiar

He is going to Persis, the club has $150.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Semen Padang training over how hard people work

Semen Padang sign Mohamed Moussa Koïta, one for the future

Mohamed Moussa Koïta is 20, and Semen Padang have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

Market17 Aug 2026

Semen Padang sell their best player to Borneo

$160.0K is a serious amount of money and it does not play centre-forward. Everybody in the dressing room knows who used to be looked at when it went wrong.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

Supporters turn on the $160.0K sale of Rendy Oscario

He is going to Borneo, the club has $160.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Market17 Aug 2026

Semen Padang turn down Borneo for Achmad Iqbal Bachtiar

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Jaime Giraldo 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 Semen Padang this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A move Saidu Lawan would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Saidu Lawan is living that version at Semen Padang, and it tends to show in the first month.

Match15 Aug 2026

Semen Padang see off Persis

Three points for Semen Padang, 1‑0 the final word against Persis in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

One of those days for Kianz Froese

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.41, and no argument anywhere in the ground.
