Persita Tangerang extended the suffering of their guests, Madura United, with a 4-1 victory in the BRI Super League match played at the Indomilk Arena Stadium, Tangerang.
This crucial victory lifted Pendekar Cisadane to fifth place in the Super League standings with 41 points. Meanwhile, Laskar Sape Kerrab's third consecutive defeat leaves them in 14th place with 20 points.
The match was only three minutes old when Persita began their scoring spree. From a corner kick, the ball was met by Tamirlan Kozubaev's header. Goalkeeper Miswar Saputra managed to parry it, but the loose ball was pounced on by Ahmad Nur Hadianto, who slotted it into the Madura United net. 1-0 to Persita.
Entering the ninth minute, Madura conceded again. A lapse in the Madura backline allowed Pablo Ganet to steal the ball and fire home Persita's second goal.
A two-goal lead didn't stop Persita from letting up, and they had another chance when Ahmad Nur Hadianto's shot went wide. Madura, on the other hand, struggled to create any meaningful play, exacerbated by several errors from midfielder Emerson de Souza.
Persita struck again against their visitors in the 16th minute. Pablo Ganet's shot was blocked by goalkeeper Miswar, but Rayco capitalized on the loose ball with a powerful right-footed shot. 3-0 to Pendekar Cisadane.
Rayco got his name on the scoresheet again in the 31st minute. Taking advantage of an Emerson error, Pablo Ganet stole the ball and passed it to Rayco, who controlled the ball briefly before unleashing a well-placed shot into the bottom left corner of the Madura goal. 4-0 to Persita.
