Malisic Was Criticized by Persija Manager

DBasia.news – As a foreign player, Bojan Malisic has to be the role for the local players. But in the match between Persib Bandung and Persija Jakarta a couple days ago, the central defender was playing rude.

Persija Jakarta manager Marsma TNI Ardji Tjahjoko showed his disappointment to the foreign defender of Persib.

One of the unfortunate acts was when he tried to counter the ball, but his leg touched Novri Setiawan’s chest.

Ardhi Tjahjoko mentioned that the act was too much. He hopes to give sanction for Bojan Malisic.

Persija Jakarta reported the incident to the PSSI disciplinary committee. “I think it’s necessary. Moreover, he is a foreign player. The foreign players playing in Indonesia should give the education, suggestion, and boost the local players’ skill, not provoking,” Ardhi said in Persija’s website.

“Apparently not, he played rude, not a good example. I think he deserves a punishment,” Ardhi Tjahjoko continued.

He hopes PSSI disciplinary committee have to be fair. Previously, Marko Simic got a playing ban from four matches due to the attack in the match against Persipura Jayapura.

“We have gathered the proof after the match. We submitted it to the disciplinary committee. The decision would be on them.”

“I can’t accept it, Simic got banned from four matches for his incident. That’s the suggestion from Persipura team, so we will do the same. Why not,” he said.

“We see in European League there are hooligans that can’t watch the match throughout the competition. The team as well.”

“So I agree to take the specific decision, PSSI will decide it, I won’t think about it. Most importantly, it gives a deterrent effect,” he explained.
