JAKARTA - Indonesia has not yet been strengthened by FK Senica club player in Slovakia, Egy Maulana Vikri, who was previously predicted to be down when he met Malaysia. Even so, Egy still supports the Garuda squad through the small screen.

Indonesia qualified for the 2020 AFF Cup semifinals as winners of Group B after crushing Malaysia with a score of 4-1 in the final group stage match at the National Stadium, Singapore, Sunday night.

Indonesia's goals were scored by Irfan Jaya (two goals), Pratama Arhan and Elkan Baggott. While Malaysia made the score via Kogileswaran Raj.

In the semifinals, Indonesia will face the second-ranked team in Group A, Singapore. This achievement in the 2020 AFF Cup also improves the achievements of the 2018 AFF Cup where Indonesia failed to advance from the group stage.

Before the match, Shin Tae-yong conveyed a request to other national team players so that Egy could feel the atmosphere of appearing in this prestigious cup in Southeast Asia.

Shin Tae-Yong emphasized that the Indonesian national team could at least hold on to a draw with Malaysia in order to secure a ticket to the 2020 AFF Cup semifinals.

"Indonesia will not be strengthened by a player from the FK Senica club in Slovakia, Egy Maulana, who was previously expected to come down when he met Malaysia," said the South Korean coach.

Shin Tae-Yong's request was granted. Indonesia not only played a draw but bulldozed Malaysia 4-1.

Through social media Instagram, Egy expressed his gratitude for the results obtained by his colleagues. He uploaded a photo of him watching a Malaysia versus Indonesia match with the words "Alhamdulillah ya Allah".

Hopefully, this player from Medan can graze in the semifinals.
