Nasib Persija di Ujung Tanduk, Shin Tae-yong Bidik Kebangkitan saat Hadapi Port FC

Persija Jakarta needs a win over Port FC in the Group B match of the 2026 President Cup on Wednesday (29/7) at Gelora Bung Tomo, Surabaya. The team is under pressure after a 0‑1 loss to Persebaya Surabaya in its opening game; three points are essential to keep its tournament hopes alive. A failure to secure victory could end Persija’s semi‑final ambitions. Port FC enters the match on a high after beating PSMS Medan 2‑0 in its debut game, giving the Thai side a perfect record. Persija coach Shin Tae‑yong admits his squad has not yet reached its ideal form, indicating both clubs face significant challenges to advance.
