Comparison Of The Strength Of The Indonesian National Team Vs Myanmar Ahead Of Appearing In The 2024 AFF Cup

JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will start the struggle in the 2024 AFF Cup against Myanmar. The inaugural match of the Garuda Squad will be held on Monday, December 9, along with a comparison of the strengths of the two teams.

The Indonesian and Myanmar national teams are both members of Group B in the 2024 AFF Cup. The inaugural match between the two teams will take place at the Thuwunna Stadium at 19.30 WIB.

In fact, the Garuda and Myanmar squads have clearly different team characteristics. However, ahead of this inaugural match, on paper, the Indonesian national team was superior.

In this inaugural match, Shin Tae-yong as the head coach developed a strategy by fielding young players to maintain regeneration development. The South Korean coach appointed talented young players who have great potential to bring the team to end the curse in this biennial soccer tournament.

The selection of the squad, which is dominated by young players, is clearly a challenge for Shin Tae-yong. Especially considering that they will face Myanmar, which has several senior players with more experiences.

However, the Indonesian national team also deserves to be taken into account by the pattern of the game attacking him. Meanwhile, Myanmar is known to focus more on solid defense.

On the other hand, what will distinguish this match is the existence of two coaches. Shin Tae-yong has a wider experience and has a much better reputation than Myanmar's Myo Hlaing Win.

The match between Indonesia and Myanmar in the 2024 AFF Cup is predicted to be interesting and tight. Both teams have their respective strengths and weaknesses.

However, with careful preparation and full support from the Indonesian people, the Indonesian national team clearly has a great opportunity to win.
