Persita Tangerang defeats Java United 3-2 in comeback win

Persita Tangerang secured their first three points of the season with a 3-2 comeback victory against Java United FC at the Banten International Stadium.

Persita initially took the lead through Alexandre Ramalingom in the 15th minute, but Java United responded with two goals, including a penalty in the 37th minute, to lead 2-1. The momentum shifted following the 70th-minute debut of Spanish midfielder Tyronne Del Pino. Despite lacking full match fitness due to missing pre-season and recent physical issues, Del Pino influenced the game through set-piece deliveries.

Rayco Rodriguez equalized in the 88th minute, and Aleksa Andrejic scored the winning goal during injury time. Persita coach Carlos Pena praised the team's fighting spirit and noted that while the victory is vital for consistency, the squad must continue to improve as the season progresses.
