JAKARTA - The Indonesian U-19 national team failed to occupy the ninth position of the 2022 Toulon Cup. They had to acknowledge the superiority of Algeria in the match for the ninth position which was held on Wednesday, June 8, local time. Appearing at the Stade Fernand-Fournier, the Indonesian national team actually showed a slick defensive performance . This is evident from the score that remained 0-0 until the 45th minute.
The national team's efforts to snatch the ninth position also slowly found a bright spot after in the 84th minute Rusadi scored the opening goal. However, this effort was then blocked by Algeria, who equalized 1-1 through Yanis Guermouche's goal in the 90+3 minute.
With the score tied at the end of the match, the match was forced to proceed to the penalty shootout. In this high-fives round, there were two Red and White Team players who failed, namely Ahmad Rusadi and Teuku Razzaa Fachrezi Aziz.
The coach of the U-19 Indonesian National Team, Dzenan Radoncic, said he was disappointed. The reason, the team actually experienced panic when it was 1-0 up. Moreover, the opponent also played with 10 men after Fares Nechat Djabri received a red card in the 74th minute.
"When we scored, we played defensively, panicked and made mistakes. That's what we have to fix," Radoncic said after the game, as reported by Goal.com.
"But before scoring the goal, we played well. Suddenly we scored, then made a mistake, so the opponent scored in the last minute," he regretted again.
