Even Better After The First Goalprint, Syahrian Abhimanyu: There Are Still Many Shortcomings

JAKARTA - Midfielder of the Indonesian national team Syahrian Abimanyu is determined to be a better player after scoring his first goal in the 2022 AFF Cup.

"There are still many shortcomings in me. God willing, in the future I can play even better," Syahrian said on his Persija website, Tuesday, quoted by Antara.

The Persija midfielder scored one goal when Indonesia defeated Brunei Darussalam with a score of 7-0 in the 2022 AFF Cup Group A match at the Kuala Lumpur Stadium, Malaysia, last Monday.

Apart from being his first goal in this event, it was also Syahrian's first goal since the 2020 edition of the AFF Cup.

The 23-year-old is grateful to be able to help the Indonesian national team win the match.

"Alhamdulillah, I am happy and grateful to be able to score one goal," said Syahrian.

The seven goals that Indonesia scored against Brunei were created by Syahrian Abimanyu, Dendy Sulistyawan, Egy Maulana, Ilija Spasojevic, Ramadhan Sananta, Marc Klok and Yakob Sayuri.

This victory makes Indonesia in second place in Group A standings with six points six of two matches and a goal difference of +8.

The top of the standings is still filled with Thailand, which has six points from two matches with a goal difference of +9.

Cambodia ranks third with three points from two matches (goal difference 0), followed by the Philippines (three points, three matches, goal difference -1) and Brunei Darussalam with zero points.

Brunei Darussalam, which leaves one match versus Cambodia, is confirmed to be eliminated from the 2022 AFF Cup.

Next Thursday, Indonesia will meet Thailand at the Bung Karno Main Stadium, Jakarta, at 16.30 WIB.

The winner of this match will certainly qualify for the 2022 AFF Cup semifinals.

On the same day, Cambodia faced Brunei Darussalam at the Morodok Techo National Stadium, Phnom Penh.
