JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team match against China will officially be held on the eve of the Eid al-Adha takbiran. This meeting is a continuation match of Group C of the 2026 World Cup Qualification.

The Indonesia vs China national team match will be presented in the ninth matchday of Group C which will take place at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK), Jakarta, on Thursday, June 5, 2025, at 20.45 WIB.

This match is an important match for the Indonesian national team who are struggling to keep their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. Especially now that the Garuda squad is in fourth position in Group C.

Patrick Kluivert's side have packed a total of nine points from eight matches they have played. They are three points ahead of Bahrain and China in fifth and sixth place in Group C.

Meanwhile, with Saudi Arabia in third place, the Indonesian national team is only one point adrift. Then, the Garuda Squad is now four points away from Australia, which is in second place.

Japan has certainly qualified for the 2026 World Cup because it is firmly perched at the top of the standings with a collection of 20 points.

To qualify for the 2026 World Cup, only the first and second ranked teams are entitled to direct tickets. Meanwhile, the third and fourth ranked teams will continue their journey to the Fourth Round of Qualification.

With the schedule of matches being held on Thursday, June 5, 2025, at 20.45 WIB, it means that the Indonesia vs China national team duel will take place on the night of the Eid takbiran which is expected to fall on Friday, June 6, 2025.

Seeing the schedule that coincides with the night of Eid al-Adha takbiran, will the Indonesia vs China national team match be crowded with spectators who are ready to support the Garuda Squad?

The reason is, the previous Garuda squad home matches were always crowded with spectators.

In the duel against Bahrain, Tuesday, March 25, 2025, SUGBK was filled with a total of 69,599 spectators. This number is the highest audience record in the Third Round of 2026 World Cup Qualification.
