Persib Bandung secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Dewa United in week 13 of the Super League 2025-2026 at Stadion GBLA. Andrew Jung's penalty goal in the 62nd minute lifted Maung Bandung to third place in the standings with 22 points. The win tightens the race with leaders Borneo FC and Persija Jakarta.
The week 13 match of the Super League 2025-2026 was intense at Stadion Gelora Bandung Lautan Api (GBLA) on Friday evening, November 21, 2025. Persib Bandung defeated Dewa United 1-0 thanks to a lone goal from Andrew Jung via penalty in the 62nd minute. The penalty was awarded after Dewa United defender Nick Kuipers fouled Uiliiam Barros in the penalty area.
Despite the lead, Persib had to defend with 10 players after Beckham Putra Nugraha received a red card in the 87th minute for a second yellow. He had only entered after halftime. Coach Bojan Hodak praised his team's discipline, especially the solid backline despite Dewa United's chances. "I already said, facing a team like Dewa with their player material is never easy. The match was very tough and tight," Hodak said. "But I'm happy and grateful that we could win the game. These three points tonight mean a lot."
French striker Andrew Jung also expressed pride in the team's effort. Dewa United, bolstered by former Persib players Nick Kuipers and Edo Febriansah, applied heavy pressure, particularly in midfield. "I think they didn't have a chance in that match to score a goal. I'm very happy because we could get three points tonight," Jung stated.
This victory marked Persib's fourth straight win in the Super League and seventh overall including AFC Champions League Two. Persib rose to third place with 22 points from 10 games (7 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses, goal difference +9). Borneo FC leads with 30 points from 10 unbeaten games, while Persija Jakarta sits second with 26 points from 12 games after a 3-1 win over Persik Kediri on November 20. Malut United is fourth with 20 points from 10 games. Borneo faces Madura United on November 22, intensifying the top-table battle.
