Rancak Media – A tense and chaotic scene unfolded at the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) Stadium following the football clash between Selangor FC and Persib Bandung. Unruly home supporters reportedly caused a disturbance and attempted to storm the players’ changing rooms, including those designated for the visiting ‘Pangeran Biru’ (Persib Bandung) squad, after the match on Thursday, November 6th.
This episode of fan unrest involving Selangor FC supporters was widely reported by Malaysian media, including Buletin TV 3. The media outlet detailed that the volatile situation outside the Petaling Jaya stadium was a direct consequence of the hosts’ bitter 2-3 defeat at the hands of Indonesian club Persib Bandung.
“Chaos was reported as a number of home supporters were seen entering the field area, expressing their dissatisfaction over the 2-3 loss to the Indonesian club,” Buletin TV 3 Malaysia stated in its report, as quoted on Friday, November 7th. “However, the situation was brought under control when security personnel prevented them from approaching the players,” the report added, highlighting the swift action taken to de-escalate the tension.
A video capturing the commotion caused by Selangor FC supporters quickly went viral across social media platforms. The footage clearly shows fans attempting to breach the stadium doors, only to be firmly repelled by vigilant security personnel. This intense situation left Persib Bandung players momentarily stranded, unable to depart the stadium as planned. The video was originally uploaded by Instagram user syamsachmad on Thursday, November 6th.
The profound disappointment among the fans stemmed from Selangor FC’s agonizing defeat, particularly its dramatic nature. The ‘Gergasi Merah’ had initially dominated the game, even securing a comfortable two-goal lead in the first half thanks to an early strike from Zach Clough in the 3rd minute and an unfortunate own goal by Patricio Matricardi in the 17th minute, setting what seemed like a promising trajectory.
However, the tide dramatically turned in the second half as Persib Bandung mounted a stunning comeback. Andrew Jung initiated their resurgence in the 49th minute, followed by a decisive brace from Adam Alis in the 81st and a crucial 90+7th minute goal, which was reportedly aided by a goalkeeping error from Sikh Izhan. These late goals completed a remarkable turnaround, sealing a painful loss for the home side.
This crushing defeat against Persib Bandung marked Selangor FC’s fourth consecutive loss in the group stage of the ACL 2 2025/2026 competition. Consequently, Selangor FC has been officially eliminated from the tournament, despite still having two matches left in Group G, a disappointing end to their campaign.
