Asnawi Mangkualam ready to face bobotoh pressure at Persib’s home

Asnawi Mangkualam from Port FC addresses the tough challenge of facing Persib at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium, Bandung — the venue for the opening match of Group B Piala Presiden 2025 this Sunday.

The Port FC wing-back acknowledges that playing in front of bobotoh — the nickname for Persib’s loyal supporters — will create unique pressure for his team.

“The match will certainly be pressure for us. But I think it’s also very good because it will be filled with Persib supporters. We will give our best performance,” states Asnawi.

Despite facing a challenging atmosphere at the opponent’s home ground, the Port FC player demonstrates his team’s mental readiness to face any possible match outcome.
