The Malikussaleh University Silaturahmi League resumed at Bukit Indah Field in Lhokseumawe on Tuesday, October 14, 2025. In the first match, Gladiator FC earned full points after a narrow 1-0 victory over Inferno Squad FC.

The Gladiator's only goal was scored by Madan in the 36th minute thanks to a clever move by Mariyudi, Gladiator FC's veteran striker. The lecturer at the Faculty of Economics and Business spotted Tamam's position, who was unmarked and immediately delivered a perfect pass. Tamam passed the pass to Madan, who scored a goal amidst a scramble in front of the Inferno goal.

With this victory, the Gladiator, also played by Prof. Dr. Sayuti, currently tops the Malikussaleh University Silaturahmi League standings. The other two teams, Rimueng FC and Rencong Warriors FC, will play their matches on Thursday, October 16, 2025.

The Malikussaleh University Friendship League is participated by lecturers and educational staff from various faculties on campus. Players are drawn into each team by drawing lots.

Unimal FC Manager, Prof. Dr. Dahlan Abdullah, emphasized that this league is held to strengthen friendships within the campus environment while also channeling football talents and hobbies.

"Therefore, the players are expected to cultivate the values ​​of sportsmanship and fair play," said the senior lecturer, who is included in the list of the world's top 2 percent scientists in 2025 by Stanford University and Elsevier.[]
