Bali United start 2022 AFC Cup positively, after a 2-0 win over Kedah FC. Tridatu soldiers currently lead the standings.
Bali United started their work in the AFC Cup by hosting Kedah FC at the I Wayan Dipta Stadium, Gianyar, Friday (24/6/2022) night WIB. Playing in front of their own supporters, Bali United appeared to dominate from the start.
I Made Andhika’s long-range shot still bounced over the goal. Opportunities from Irfan Jaya in the 20th minute in a chaotic situation in the Kedah FC penalty box still ended sideways.
Opportunities from Leonard Tupamahu not long ago still soared. The execution of Eber’s free kick in the 32nd minute also did not meet the target, just barely above the goal.
Kedah FC applied pressure, but Mahmoud Al Mardi’s shot went wide. Nadeo Argawinata then made a save from Dechi N’Guessan’s shot.
GOAL! Bali United took the lead in first-half injury time. Ronald Ngah deflected Eber’s kick so it went into his own goal.
Bali United continued to press the visitors in the second half. A number of good attacks are built, but the completion is not optimal.
Muhammad Rahmat in a free position on the left side when receiving Eber’s pass. But his shot went wide.
Ilija Spasojevic had a good chance in the 80th minute. But the ball was successfully stopped on the goal line.
GOAL! Rahmat widened the difference in the 81st minute. Eber’s cross from the right he grabbed with a header. The score of 2-0 lasted until the long whistle.
This result is a good start for Bali United in the AFC Cup. Three points put Serdadu Tridatu at the top of Group G, ahead on goal difference over Visakha FC.
