Unfortunately they failed to advance to the quarter-finals after four consecutive defeats.

Many clubs in Indonesia experience dualism and compete in two different competitions. League dualism occurs at the Indonesia Super League and Divisi Utama. PPSM Magelang was also affected by the dualism of competition, so that there were two PPSM clubs competing in Divisi Utama LPIS and Divisi Utama LI.
