JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will resume their struggle in the round of 16 of the 2023 Asian Cup. Facing Australia as a difficult opponent, Asnawi Mangkualam has the opportunity to return to appear to fill the list of core players in the match later. The Indonesian national team will meet Australia at the Jassim bin Hamad Stadium, Al Rayyan on Sunday, January 28 at 18.30 WIB. In that match, Asnawi Mangkualam had the possibility of being directly involved by the coach, Shin Tae-yong. The opportunity exists considering that in the match against Japan, the captain failed to be fielded. Asnawi's position at that time was replaced by Sandy Walsh who was paired with Yakob Sayuri in the right position. With these conditions, Asnawi could again get right in the first team against Australia later. If he is pulled in, it is likely that Shin Tae-yong will put him in the right back position. Meanwhile, Sandy Walsh, who previously occupied the position, could have shifted to centre-back and duet with Justin Hubner and Jordi Amat. If Shin Tae-yong put up a trio of Walsh, Amat and Hubner, his third appearance would be unquestionable. This was proven when they helped the national team beat Vietnam with a score of 1-0. Apart from these changes, Shin Tae-yong did not make many other reshuffles, because in general, the South Korean coach has the right starting composition for IX during his appearance in the 2023 Asian Cup. So far, Shin Tae-yong has always entrusted the performance of Marselino Ferdinand, Ivar Jenner, Yakob Sayuri and Rafael Struick to become the mainstay of the Garuda team. Not to forget Ernando Ari who was always on guard under the crossbar. As for Egy Maulana's position, who was injured, the coach could have put Witan Sulaeman in that position since the early minutes.

The following is the prediction of the Indonesian vs Australian national team line-up: Indonesian national team: Ernando Ari; Asnawi Mangkualam, Sandy Walsh, Jordi Amat, Justin Hubner, Pratama Arhan; Yakob Sayuri, Ivar Jenner, Marselino Ferdinand, Witan Sulaeman; Rafael Struick.
