Hello everyone, lovers of sports Persib Bandung will lose Ezechiel N'Douassel when entertaining Sriwijaya FC, at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium (GBLA), Bandung City, Saturday, August 4 2018.

The player from Chad was sentenced to the PSSI Disciplinary Commission because he was considered hitting an opponent in the match against Barito Putera, 22 July. Ezechiel was sentenced by Komdis to twice playing restrictions plus a fine of Rp. 20 million.

The punishment for Ezechiel made Persib coach Mario Gomez furious. Moreover, the previous week two players from Persib, Bojan Malisic and Hariono also received punishment from Komdis.

"I do not know (Ezechiel problem), because some people in the Federation (PSSI) do not like Persib Bandung, you know the name. Every time the Komdis trial, there must be Persib," said Gomes at Graha Persib, Jalan Sulanjana, Bandung, Friday, August 3, 2018.

Gomez mentioned Persib's away match when visiting Arema headquarters. At that time, Bojan Malisic's face received a header from Arthur Cunha, but Arema was not sanctioned for Arthur's actions.

"For Arema, they come to fight, not to enjoy the game, also for other teams just for money. This is always the case with other teams too, but maybe some people think we are stupid," he said.

Even so, Gomez said that Persib would not back down and still fight what PSSI had done that Gomez felt was not acting fair against Persib.

"I want to tell you that our Federation will continue to fight. We will not retreat, every day, every time, and every time this person acts. This is information for this person (PSSI)," he said.

Playing at home is an advantage for Persib. According to Gomez, the target of being able to bend Sriwijaya is not a grand target. "We will play with 12 players (bobotoh), it will help, and we have a good defense line so it will allow us to win," he said.

Persib currently tops the League 1 standings with a value of 32, three points ahead of Barito. While Sriwijaya FC is in eighth position with a value of 26.
