A Six-Goal Thriller: Cumic Rescues PSM Makassar at Gelora BJ Habibie

Must-Watch Futmetrix Score: 100/100. This absolute barnstormer delivered endless drama, featuring wild momentum swings, controversial penalties, and a stoppage-time equaliser that nearly blew the roof off the stadium.

Early Arema Ambush

The fixture at Gelora BJ Habibie ignited almost immediately, throwing both sides into a frantic opening act. Arema FC arrived with clear intent, proving exactly why they sit near the top of the table. The Stakes were evident as Gabriel Silva struck first in the 29th minute, finishing off a sharp move orchestrated by Matheus Blade. Before the hosts could fully regroup, Gustavo Franca doubled the advantage from the penalty spot just six minutes later. It looked like a routine away victory was already written. However, PSM Makassar managed to claw their way out of the abyss right before the interval, as S. Jevtoski calmly converted a penalty deep into stoppage time to keep the contest alive.

The Second-Half Pivot

Just when the hosts looked ready to mount a challenge, Arema landed what seemed to be a fatal blow. In the 61st minute, MV found the back of the net courtesy of Betinho’s setup, restoring the two-goal cushion to make it 3-1. The Balance of the match threatened to completely unravel for the home side. Yet, football rarely adheres to logic. Only five minutes after conceding, PSM stormed back down the pitch. L. Cumic linked up beautifully with R. Bakri to score in the 66th minute, instantly altering the complexion of the afternoon. This rapid response was the crucial turning point, shifting the psychological weight onto the visitors' shoulders.

A Dramatic Finale

The closing stages were a masterclass in relentless pressure. PSM controlled possession, finishing the match with 59% of the ball as they pinned Arema deep into their own half. The Intensity was absolutely suffocating. Wave after wave of attacks tested the visitors' backline, and their resilience finally snapped at the death. Deep into the sixth minute of stoppage time, N. Foor delivered a desperate, perfectly weighted ball that L. Cumic smashed home to secure his brace. It was a spectacular 96th-minute equaliser that rescued a precious point for a team looking to steer clear of the early relegation battle, leaving Arema stunned at what could have been.
