JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will undergo FIFA Matchday against Argentina at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium, Senayan on Monday, June 19 at 19.30 WIB. This match will be a historic moment for the Garuda Squad because it can serve the world's number one team.
Not only that, the moment of the meeting with the 2022 World Cup champion will also be put to good use by Shin Tae-yong, to see and test the abilities of his team.
"The Argentine opponent is definitely not an easy opponent. I will give a message to the players to try to play well in the match later," said Shin Tae-yong.
"The players can learn a lot from the Argentine team and with this match we can know how strong our team is and can determine what the future direction will be," he continued during a press conference.
Facing a team like Albiceleste, the Garuda squad is not targeted to win big profits. Even so, Marc Klok and his friends can build confidence through a record 11 matches without defeat at home.
This meeting is a great opportunity for Indonesia to improve its position in the FIFA rankings. Because Argentina was not strengthened by three of its mainstay players, namely Lionel Messi, Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi.
In the match later, Lionel Scaloni as the Argentine coach also implies that he will rotate and field second-tier players. This moment could be a gap for the national team to prove the ability of each player.
In the opposing camp, the news that they will play with the second tier team can't be underestimated either. Because their image as world champions will remain attached through the quality of the players in it.
Albiceleste came to Jakarta with very good capital, because in the inaugural match of the June 2023 edition of FIFA Matchday they won successfully. Against Australia in Beijing, China last June 14, Lionel Messi et al won 2-0.
In recent head to head records, the Tango team also has flashy results. Scaloni's squad won 10 times and only lost 1.
For the record meeting of the Indonesia vs Argentina national team, this will be the first moment for the two teams to meet at the senior level. However, at the U-20 level, the Indonesian national team had lost 0-5 to Argentina in the 1979 U-20 World Cup.
