Thecuy.com, Lamongan – Persela Lamongan secured a narrow 1-0 victory over PSPS Pekanbaru in a friendly match hosted at Stadion Surajaya on Saturday evening, August 29, 2026.

The sole goal for Persela was netted by Lamongan-born striker Dendy Sulistiawan in the 33rd minute. The goal came from a header by Dendy, who capitalized on a corner kick delivered by Hambali Tolib. Wearing the number 22 jersey, Dendy returned to his former club after a stint with Bhayangkara FC.

Even though they only led by one goal, the match was quite intense. PSPS Pekanbaru put up a strong fight and created several threats to Persela’s goal. One of the visitors’ best chances came from Antonio Gamaroni’s header that struck the crossbar.

Persela’s foreign striker, Juninjo Cabrak, also showed full enthusiasm but wasn’t at his best due to insufficient ball supply from the midfield.

Persela’s coach, Bima Sakti, said that this match was the first official trial after roughly a month of preparation. According to Bima, there are still several areas that need improvement, such as defensive coordination, player fitness, and chemistry among the players.

“Our physical condition is still lacking, and the coordination in the middle hasn’t gelled yet. There were several instances of losing possession. Hambali also missed a few chances. But overall, they displayed their best performance,” Bima said after the match.

Nevertheless, Bima praised the players’ hard work for trying to follow the coach’s instructions throughout the match. In his view, the result wasn’t the main focus, but rather how the players could implement the coaching staff’s guidance for future evaluation.

This victory provides a positive foundation for Persela Lamongan as they continue their preparations for the upcoming official competition.
