PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) has moved forward the schedule for Persib Bandung's last home match against Persis Solo at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium, which was originally.
President Director of PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) Ferry Paulus explained that the reason for moving the match schedule forward was to provide convenience and not disrupt Persib's preparations for the championship convoy which is planned to be held on Monday (26/5).
"Well then the awarding or prize giving was last, on May 24. We did move it forward to May 24 from the original May 25 so that there would be an opportunity for a convoy and so on. That was on Saturday. So that it wouldn't be a disturbance," said Ferry when met by media crews in South Jakarta, Wednesday.
The advancement of Persib's schedule, said Ferry, will also affect the schedules of other teams which were originally also going to be held simultaneously on Sunday at 15.30 WIB.
He said, later the schedules that will be brought forward are the teams that still have a chance of being relegated. For now until the 31st week, there are seven teams that have the potential to be relegated, namely PSIS Semarang (25 points), PSS Sleman (25 points), and Barito Putera (30 points) are the three teams that are now in the relegation zone.
