JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will have their first match in the preliminary round of Group A of the 2022 AFF Cup against Cambodia. Ahead of that encounter, there are three opposing players who must be wary of Garuda Team players.

The match will be held at the Gelora Bung Karno (SUGBK) Main Stadium on Friday, December 23 at 16.30 WIB. This match will be an important moment for the Garuda Squad in targeting full points in the opening match.

The preparation of a mature squad is important. But, besides that, Shin Tae-yong's foster children must also be on high alert for Cambodia. Because, based on data compiled by VOI.ID, there are several Cambodian players who can be a serious threat in the 2022 AFF Cup.

The first Cambodian player to be wary of is Reung Bunheing. Taking the position as a striker, Reung has shown signs of a sharp game in his first match against the Philippines. He scored two goals from a total score of 3-2 for Cambodia's victory.

Fachrudin et al in defense must monitor the movement of this 30-year-old player. Because, with the flight hours it has, Reung Buheing is estimated to already know the character of Indonesia's game. To guard its movement, the Fachrudin and Jordi Amat duo can be an option for Shin Tae-yong.

While helping Cambodia beat the Philippines, Orn contributed one goal. The process of a goal against the opponent at that time was directed by Orn by impressive means.

The Phnom Penh Crown club player grabbed a wild ball in the penalty box with a hard kick. The effort was unable to be blocked by the Philippine goalkeeper, and with that note Orn must be stopped early before approaching the defense zone.

Marc Klok can be appointed to stick and limit the movement of Orn Chanpolin in the middle sector. The role of the defense is also important, for that Shin Tae-yong must mix the right defensive pattern so that Orn Chanpolin's feet do not endanger the Indonesian goal.

Lim Pisoth's ability to tamper with the ball was very useful for Cambodia in building attacks. That's the reason Lim Pisoth is one of Ryu Huse's main choices to occupy the far-right sector.

Seeing Lim Pisoth's position, Shin Tae-yong must build strength on the left side against Cambodia. The Garuda squad coach can place Pratama Arhan. However, the player is still doubtful.

Therefore, Shin Tae-yong must prepare a mature option by appointing other players who can be installed at the left back position. Edo Febriansyah and Yakob Sayuri can be Shin Tae-yong's choice to replace Arhan.
