WARTAKOTALIVE.COM, JAKARTA– Persija Jakarta coach, Thomas Doll targets his team to score perfect points against Bhayangkara FC, Sunday (16/7/2023).
The match will be held at the Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, at 19.00 WIB.
To achieve that result, Thomas Doll said he had prepared the team optimally.
Even their new player from Poland, Maciej Gajos has participated in the preparations to face Bhayangkara FC.
“Tomorrow is an important game for us. We have already made preparations to practice. The atmosphere within the team has also been good from the last two matches yesterday,” said Thomas Doll in the pre-match conference, Saturday (15/7/2023).
“In the last two matches yesterday, we started the first half match not well. For tomorrow, we have to play well from the start, “he continued.

“We have to be more confident. We also have the arrival of Gajos. He has been training with us since three days ago. Hopefully we will get good results tomorrow,” hoped Thomas Doll.
Meanwhile, when asked whether Gajos would play tomorrow’s match, the coach from Germany was reluctant to reveal clearly.
He only implied that the player who plays as an attacking midfielder could have been played on the bench first.
It is hoped that Gajos’ presence will break the deadlock on Persija Jakarta’s front line, which is considered to have been less productive until the last two matches.
As is known, Persija was only able to achieve two draws in the previous game, namely 1-1 with PSM Makassar and without a goal at Persikabo headquarters in 1973.

“After a long journey there must be a feeling of fatigue that he must feel.
But I think he’s a professional player. He has also trained with us and is doing well.
For the problem of weather temperature, of course it is normal for foreign players who have just arrived in Indonesia, “explained Thomas Doll.
“But I’m sure over time he will get used to it. Today we have the last practice for tomorrow’s game.
We’ll see what the conditions are like. Whether he can play or not.
He could just play as a substitute for tomorrow’s game. We’ll see,” he concluded.
