BP to meet UNJ in soccer final

JAKARTA (JP): Buana Putri and State University of Jakarta
(UNJ) women's soccer team breezed into the derby final of the
2001 women's soccer invitational on Sunday.

Jakarta-based Buana Putri beat Putri Priangan of Bandung 4-0
at the semifinals on Friday while UNJ outclassed Putri Belitung
3-2 in a penalty shoot-out.

The 30-year-old striker Yakso Bukor Piopen (center) scored a
hat trick in the 23th, 66th and 69th minutes, respectively. Yakso
tops the list of scorers with 15 goals in four matches and she
has the chance to add more this Sunday.

Another Buana striker Maryana contributed a goal in the 57th
minute.

In the other semifinal, Muliati of Putri Belitung scored first
in the 20th minute but 20 minutes later, Hafifah Zahrah of UNJ
netted an equalizer. The 1-1 draw did not change until the end of
the match.

Only Hazila of Putri Belitung and UNJ captain Rina Ambar
Dewanti managed to score a goal each in the penalty shootout so
both teams were subsequently forced into a second penalty shoot-
out. Finally, striker Bai Komariah K. of UNJ successfully
executed her penalty. (ivy)
