JAKARTA – The Indonesian women's national team has certainly been eliminated from the 2022 Women's Asian Cup. This is after the Garuda Pertiwi squad lost against the Philippines in the last match of the group stage.

Indonesia had to go home with a 6-0 defeat in the match which took place on Thursday, 27 January evening, at Shivchatrapati Sports Complex, India. Philippines women's national team captain Tahnai Annis scored two goals, while Katrina Jacqueline, Sarina Bolden, Malea Louise and Jessica Miclat each scored one.

The match had only been running for five minutes, Indonesia was immediately awarded a penalty by the field court. Luckily, the execution of the twelve points taken by Sarina Bolden failed to bear fruit.

Only a minute away from the threat of a penalty, the goal of Garuda Pertiwi even missed. Katrina Jacqueline Guillou managed to record her name on the scoreboard to bring her team ahead.

After falling behind, Indonesia's efforts to equalize met difficulties. Rudy Eka Priyambada's foster children were forced to stay out of their defense area.

In contrast, the Philippines appeared to dominate the match and was able to double the score in the 27th. This time it was Sarina Bolden's turn to rattle Riska Aprilia's goal net after continuing her partner's pass from a corner with a header.

Eleven minutes after coming home from the dressing room, the Philippines scored the next goal to get away. Team captain Tahnai Annis made a spectacular shot from outside the penalty box which was difficult for Riska to block.

In the 74th minute Jessica Miclat did not waste a golden opportunity when trusted to execute a penalty. He managed to add a score to bring Alen Stajcic's team to a 4-0 lead.

Annis made another spectacular goal in the 82nd minute with an accurate shot from outside the box. Then Malea Louise Cesar's goal in added time ended the Philippines' goal celebration over Indonesia.

This result makes Zahra Muzdalifah and friends remain the caretaker of the final standings of Group B without pocketing a single point. Their gait stopped in the preliminary round.

Garuda Pertiwi conceded a total of 28 goals and did not score a single goal against the opponent's goal. In detail, they conceded 18 goals against Australia, 4 goals against Thailand, and 6 goals against the Philippines.
