PAYOVICH REMAINS POSITIVE

The Indonesian youth side, which are on a playing tour of Uruguay this month, lost their first game to River Plate FC the previous week.

But this time round against Liverpool FC – which fielded both their U17 and then the U16 in either half – the visitors scored their first goal of their playing tour off Rinaldi Gunapradiptha.

Rinaldi was a last minute inclusion into the match against Liverpool following regular striker Finky Pasamba’s failure of a fitness test and the lad did well to score with a header off a cross from Alfin Tuasalamony.

“Good game,” quipped Payovich afterwards.
