JAKARTA - The U-23 Indonesian national team has been in Paris in preparation for the U-23 Guinea in the inter-confederation playoffs. Garuda Muda focused on adapting the weather first.
The Indonesia U-23 vs Guinea U-23 meeting will compete for the final ticket to the 2024 Paris Olympics. The match will be held at the Center National du Football de Clairefontaine, France, on Thursday, May 9, 2024, WIB night.
Before arriving in Paris, Garuda Muda first went by air for seven hours from Qatar, which is the location of the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup.
The long journey was clearly draining and tiring. Therefore, upon arrival in Paris, Shin Tae-yong decided to give the players a break and only held training on Monday, May 6, 2024, at the Leo Lagrange Stadium, Besancon, France.
