Persiba Win Exciting East Borneo Derby

Well, politically speaking it is a derby. Persiba travelled to Bontang and won 5-3 continuing their recent goal scoring spree, 13 in three games. A derby geographically? Well, if you wanna call a 6 hour drive a local derby!
Persiba finished 3rd last season and hopes were high in the oil rich town that a serious shot at the title was on the cards.
