Jakarta Derby Postponed

Sunday's derby between Persitara and Persija has been called. The game had been switched to Bung Karno Stadium, nominally Persija's home ground, because Persitara's Soemantri Brojonegoro was considered too small.

But with no security clearance released for Bung Karno the game would have had to go ahead without spectators meaning Persitara would have had to stump up the costs of hiring the more expensive stadium and they were obviously reluctant to do so.
