In a closely contested match, Borneo FC Samarinda narrowly defeated Persis Solo 1-0, with the decisive goal coming early in the first half. This early strike set the tone, allowing Borneo to play more defensively and strategically manage the game. Despite Persis Solo's increased offensive efforts, particularly in corner kicks where they had a 6 to 2 advantage, they failed to convert these opportunities into goals.

Persis Solo's attack was frequently hindered by offsides, being caught offside three times compared to Borneo's clean slate. This reflects a lack of cohesion and timing in Persis Solo's forward line, leading to missed chances. Furthermore, their inability to penetrate Borneo's defense was exacerbated by disciplined positioning and anticipation by Borneo's backline, which nullified Persis Solo's attacking threats.

The home side's physicality was evident through their 13 fouls compared to Borneo's 9, indicating a more aggressive approach to regain possession. However, this physical edge did not translate into effective pressure, as they received one yellow card while failing to break Borneo's defensive resilience. In contrast, Borneo's disciplined play, free from any cards, allowed them to maintain their composure under pressure and effectively control the game's tempo, ultimately securing their victory.
