AFC Cup Semifinal Holds Today: Preview of Home United Vs Persija

Jakarta football club Persija Jakarta will match against Singapore club Home United for the first semifinal game of the Southeast Asian of 2018 AFC Cup at Stadion Jalan Besar, Kallang, Singapore today, May 8. The match starts from 18:30 Western Indonesian Time and will be live broadcasted on TV station RCTI.

Persija Coach Stefano “Teco” Cugurra expressed his team ready to work hard in the match considering Persija did not compete in League 1 for the past several weeks.

“We are well-prepared. We’ve been training maximally to face this match. We have had enough time to rest and can focus on AFC. Once again, we are ready to face this fight,” said Teco, as quoted in the club’s official website.

Teco mentioned the opponent party is to watch out for. “Home United plays well in the group, they are the number one. I see that our opponents have good qualities and we have to concentrate with or without balls to fight them,” he added.
This Brazilian coach will try to achieve the best results in the match to ease their steps in the second leg in Jakarta a week later.

Teco assessed the opponent player from South Korea Song Ui Young should be wary of. He scored three goals in two games. “Our players in the back should get a good marking and focus,” he said.
