Persija Jakarta and visiting team Malut United closed the 2024/2025 Indonesian League 1 season with a 0-0 draw in a match played at the Jakarta International Stadium.
The result put Macan Kemayoran in seventh place in the final standings with 51 points, while Malut (57) failed to break into the top two and ended in third place.
Appearing at the opponent's home ground and trying to take control, Malut first spread a real threat through Adriano's speculative shot in the 10th minute, but the ball still soared just above the home team's crossbar.
The hosts who were slowly able to control the game created several chances, unfortunately Maciej Gajos' header from a corner kick went wide. Gajos threatened the visitors again in the 16th minute with a shot from outside the penalty box that ended up hitting the crossbar. Five minutes later, it was Ryo's turn to release a shot that went narrowly wide.
Gajos' persistence has not paid off. In the 26th minute, his hard kick from Rio Fahmi's pull pass hit the crossbar again. Other golden opportunities came from Hanif Sjahbandi (29') whose shot was thwarted by the Malut goalkeeper, as well as Gustavo Almeida's header (33') and Yakob Sayuri's left-footed shot (41') which all missed the target.
The first half ended with a score of 0-0.
