Despite the tragic death of the player, Persela Football Club strived and continued to fight against Semen Padang. Persela FC succeeded in beating the other team with a score of 2-0. Too sad though that Huda was not able to witness his team’s victory in the match. Huda’s life was gone in an instant.
