The classic match will soon be held when Persib is hosted by Persija in Week 28. The match is scheduled to be played on Saturday (4/3). Of course, this match will be special for Marc Klok because he used to play for the Kemayoran Tigers.
But the player emphasized that his focus is not on this classic match now. Because Persib must appear against Barito Putera in Week 27 on Monday (27/2) afternoon. According to him, it is more important to face the closest match, especially since Laskar Antasari will not be easily defeated.
“I will definitely look at Barito and then I will look at Persija. Because the match against Barito is very important and difficult for us to win,” said the naturalized midfielder in a press conference after the match against Arema, Thursday (23/2) yesterday.
But he did not deny that the party against Persija would have a different feeling. Because he was once part of the Capital club. However, regarding pressure from opposing fans, he said that his relationship with The Jakmania was still well established.
“And to fight Persija there will definitely be a special feeling, maybe there is pressure but in my opinion, I don’t have bad feelings for Persija or The Jakmania. I still have a good relationship there, but if that moment and Persib are big rivals, maybe someone will pressure me,” he said.
“Now I am a national team player and I play for the country, they also support me in the national team. If there is (pressure) I accept it and I’m looking forward to the match, hopefully playing at the full GBK, Klok likes big matches and I’m looking forward to that match,” said Klok.
