Dewa United's Impressive Preseason for BRI Liga 1 2024/2025

Although PSS Sleman lost in the first week of BRI Liga 1, they shouldn’t be at the bottom of the table. There are four other clubs that also lost and have worse goal differences. However, PSS Sleman is placed 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 that PSS Sleman began the season with a -3 point situation! Why did PSS Sleman receive a three-point deduction? Currently, 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 previous issue that affected the team in 2018. Details will be released by the club soon.

BRI Liga 1 kicked off the 2024/2025 season with two matches on Saturday (August 10, 2024) evening WIB. In the first game, Madura United was held to a draw by Malut United, while PSM Makassar secured a decisive victory over Persis Solo. At the Gelora Bangkalan Stadium, Madura United, the finalist from last season, hosted Malut United, a newly promoted team. The match was evenly contested until the end of the first half when Malut United’s foreign player, Cassio Scheid, committed a serious foul. After reviewing VAR, referee Sance Lawita upgraded Cassio’s yellow card to a red card. Returning from the break, Madura United, now with a numerical advantage, put pressure on Malut United’s defense. In the 65th minute, Yance Sayuri fouled Irfan Andi in the penalty area, and the referee awarded a penalty. After a lengthy delay due to protests from Malut United players, Lulinha calmly converted the penalty into a goal. However, Malut United refused to give up. In the 80th minute, they earned a direct free kick inside Madura United's penalty area. Tatsuro Nagamatsu took advantage of this opportunity to score.

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 played against Persebaya Surabaya in the opening match of BRI Liga 1. Playing at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium on Sunday (August 11, 2024) night WIB, Super Elang Jawa lost 0-1 to Persebaya. PSS Sleman’s performance in this match was not bad. They managed to defend very solidly. However, a penalty goal from Bruno Moreira made the difference and left PSS Sleman without any points. PSS Sleman should have been listed with 0 points in the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 standings. Yet, on the official Liga Indonesia Baru website, PSS Sleman is listed with a -3 points. What’s going on?
