Nevertheless, PSS Sleman is at the bottom of the standings according to PT LIB. Moreover, there is a note indicating that PSS Sleman’s points have been reduced by three. This means PSS Sleman started the game with a -3 point situation! Why did PSS Sleman get a three-point deduction? As of now, there is no explanation from the club, PT LIB, or PSSI. However, a clue comes from journalist FX Harminanto of Kedaulatan Rakyat. Harminanto mentioned that PSS Sleman received a (-3) point sanction according to the PT Liga Indonesia Baru standings table. This is related to a past issue affecting the team in 2018. Details will be released by the club shortly.

The reason for Persija Jakarta’s cancellation of the friendly match against Atletico Madrid is their participation in the 2024 President's Cup. Initially, there were rumors that Persija would face Atletico Madrid on Saturday (August 3) at Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) as part of their preparations for the upcoming season. Persija qualified for the semifinal stage of the 2024 President's Cup and was set to play against Persis Solo for third place on the same day at Stadion Manahan, Solo. "It was impossible because we were in the third-place match of the 2024 President's Cup, right?" said Persija's Director, Mohamad Prapanca, to reporters.

He explained that Atletico Madrid could only come on that specific date, which conflicted with Persija's schedule. "We were prepared to host them, but we had to follow the regulations of our federation," Prapanca said. Prapanca is uncertain whether Atletico Madrid will still come to Indonesia following the cancellation of the friendly. He noted that Persija had initially planned to test their strength against the Spanish giants. "I’m not sure. You should inquire with the promoter about Atletico Madrid’s visit. Regarding the planning, yes, the plan was made," Prapanca added. "But the promoter also needs to get approval from our federation and PT LIB to see if it could be arranged during the 2024 President’s Cup," he concluded.

The head-to-head record between PSS Sleman and Persebaya is not favorable. In the last six encounters, PSS has never won against Bajul Ijo. During this period, Persebaya won three times, and the remaining three matches ended in draws. Persebaya has a strong roster, including Francisco Rivera, who was the best player in BRI Liga 1 2023/2024. However, this does not make PSS captain Kim Kurniawan concede defeat before the match. "Rivera had an outstanding season with Madura United FC last year and was a crucial player for the team. We need to control Rivera’s movement to limit his impact on Persebaya's play," Kim said.

PSS Sleman started the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 season with a defeat. However, the main concern is not just the defeat but the -3 points listed in the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 standings for PSS Sleman.

PSS Sleman’s performance in this match was not bad. They managed to hold their ground very well. However, a penalty goal from Bruno Moreira made the difference and left PSS Sleman without any points.
