JAKARTA Indonesia only needs the results of the series against Jordan in the 23rd Asian Cup U. The results of the Group A match at the Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium, Doha, Qatar on Sunday night (21/4/2024) are enough to take Garuda Muda to the quarter-finals, but victory remains a target.

This was emphasized by the coach of Indonesia U 23, Shin Tae-yong ahead of the duel tonight.

"Indeed, this is the Middle East team, one of the Middle East teams that is not so easily defeated and very strong in posture. So I emphasize to the players that we must not be careless in fighting them. All preparations to win will definitely be targeted for victory," said Shin, a South Korean coach who is usually nicknamed STY, quoted from the PSSI website.

Shin specifically highlighted the Jordanian posture, which is seen as superior to the average Indonesian player. The superiority of the posture is likely to be damped with agility to avoid collisions as much as possible.

Of course, Indonesia's confidence is currently in development after a 1-0 victory over Australia. This high confidence is believed to be able to bring in superior performance which resulted in Garuda Muda's victory.

"Yes, of course I am very confident, the moment of winning against Australia is very useful for me and the team and hopefully I can show my best for the next match," said attacking midfielder Marselino Ferdinand.
