JAKARTA - Ramadhan Sananta became one of the players who scored in the victory of the Indonesian national team vs Vietnam in the fourth round of Group F of the 2026 Asian Zone World Cup Qualification.

This slick record turned out to make Sananta able to outperform the achievements of world football star Lionel Messi.

The meeting of the Indonesian vs Vietnam national team took place at the My Dinh Stadium, Hanoi, Tuesday, March 26, 2024, WIB night. The Garuda squad successfully defeated the hosts with a score of 3-0.

The three goals that brought the Indonesian national team to secure full points were donations from Jay Idzes (9'), Ragnar Oratmangoen (23'), and closed Ramadan Sananta (90+8').

The success of Sananta in breaking into Vietnam's goal made him now have recorded four goals in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

Sananta made three other goals against Brunei Darussalam in the first two matches of the 2026 World Cup Qualification.

This means that the collection of four goals made Sananta sharper than Lionel Messi. The reason is, the Argentine superstar has only collected three goals in the 2026 World Cup Qualification so far.

Sananta's goal record is also on par with Egyptian star Mohamed Salah. Salah has also scored four goals while defending Egypt in ticket hunting for the 2026 World Cup.

This goal against Vietnam could be a capital for Sananta to convince Shin Tae-yong so that he can get more playing minutes.

So far, Sananta has not succeeded in becoming Shin Tae-yong's first choice to fill the position at the spearhead of the Garuda Squad.

The Indonesian national team still has two matches left in the second round of Group F of the 2026 World Cup Qualification in the Asian Zone.

They still have to face Iraq and the Philippines at home in June 2026.

If able to qualify for the third round, it means that Sananta still has a greater chance of adding to her collection of goals in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
