Group A Power Ranking of the 2025 President's Cup, Marselino Ferdinan Aims for Victory with Oxford United, Arema FC Targets Fifth Title!
Best for you - The 2025 President's Cup will be held starting tomorrow, July 6. The opening match will see Oxford United face against Liga Indonesia All Star at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium. Six teams will be divided into two groups, Group A and Group B.
Group A will be filled by Liga Indonesia All Star, Oxford United, and Arema FC. Arema, as the defending champion and the team with the most Piala Presiden trophies, will certainly face a tough road from the English team, Oxford United. The squad of the best local players from Liga Indonesia All Star will definitely provide a fierce resistance.
How is the power map in group A?
Arema FC
Arema FC is the most successful team in the President's Cup tournament. So far, they have collected four trophies from this pre-season tournament. Now they are determined to defend their title and increase their collection to five trophies.
"We really want to retain the title we have won four times. This is an important tournament for us to prepare the team before the official competition starts," said Arema FC's General Manager Yusrinal Fitriandi, as quoted from the club's official website.
Arema FC has just appointed a new coach, Marcos Santos. In addition, in strengthening the squad, Singo Edan has already recruited four foreign players: Paulinho Moccelin, Valdeci Moreira, Odivan Koerich, and Yann Motta.
With the addition of four new players, Marcos Santos is expected to lead his team back to win the President's Cup and also serve as an important asset for facing the 2025/2026 Liga 1 season.
Indonesian All Star
For the first time, the President's Cup will be participated by a newly formed team, the Liga Indonesia All Star, which was established after the end of Liga 1. Although this team will only compete during the 2025 President's Cup, they should not be taken lightly.
Indonesia All Star League consists of the best local players from Liga 1, selected based on voting by football fans across the country. There are 30 players registered in this team, including Hansamu Yama, Septian David Maulana, Alwi Slamat, and players from the Indonesia U-17 National Team who will compete in the FIFA U-17 World Cup, Zahaby Gholy.
Meanwhile, the coach appointed to handle them is Coach Rahmad Darmawan, who has high experience and flight hours in managing major teams in the Indonesian League such as Madura United, Sriwijaya FC, and Barito Putra.
In his statement, Rahmad Darmawan targeted to advance from the group stage. After advancing, the next target could be to reach the final.
"Our target is to 'play three times.' If we play three times, of course we have to pass the group stage," he said, as quoted by Antara. As known, in the group stage, each team will only play twice. If they want to play more than that, they have to advance to the semi-final.
With the composition of the best local players from Liga 1, Liga Indonesia All Star might surprise Arema FC and Oxford United. Of course, this is also a challenge for Coach Rahmad Darmawan to combine the chemistry of players from various Liga 1 clubs, most of whom have never played together in a single team.
Oxford United
This year's President's Cup tournament also, for the first time, invited two foreign teams, namely Oxford United and Port FC. For Oxford United, they are in Group A. In his statement, Oxford player and also Indonesia national team star, Marselino Ferdinan, emphasized that his team will try to aim for the championship.
"Kita have thoroughly prepared, including physical training. We came to the President's Cup seriously and aiming for the championship, as well as providing entertainment to the spectators," he said, as quoted from the PSSI YouTube account.
Besides wanting to win, Lino also reminded the audience to give a good impression in front of the contestants, especially the foreign clubs.
"I also ask the Indonesian audience to give good feedback or impressions, because many of the Oxford players are coming here for the first time," he said.
