JAKARTA - The U-16 Indonesian national team managed to seal the third title in the 2024 AFF U-16 Cup. Facing Vietnam, Nova Arianto's team won a landslide victory with a score of 5-0 from Vietnam.

The Garuda Muda squad, which appeared as the host, looked quite confident. Appearing at Manahan Stadium, Solo on Wednesday, July 3 afternoon, Nova Arianto's team immediately pressed Vietnam's movement at the beginning of the match.

Seen from the movement before the match entered one minute, the Garuda Muda squad had collided with an attack which then gave birth to a corner kick.

One minute later, the U-16 Indonesian national team got a golden opportunity through a cross from Andi Faith Jamaludin. Continuing the bait from Rachman, unfortunately this effort still has not paid off.

The threat in the match that took place in the early hours made the Vietnamese troops move frantically. Tran Minh Chien's team tried to close the room while pressing deep into the host's defense.

The sale and purchase of attacks occurred until the middle of the match which had not yet produced a goal for both teams. In the 35th minute, the chance was again on the host's side.

At this moment, Fabio Azkairawan threw a long-range Pratama Arhan and gave birth to chaos in front of the Vietnam goal. However, the Indonesian players who were on guard in front of the bar still could not take advantage of the chaos to score goals.

In the final minutes of normal time, the deadlock of the Garuda Muda squad finally broke. In the 45th minute the score was 1-0 through Zahaby Gholy's goal after continuing Fandi Ahmad's through ball.

The referee then increased the duration by three minutes. As the minute entered 45+2, Tristan Raissa Ibrahim received a yellow card after violating a Vietnamese player during a counterattack.

But one minute later, the U-16 Indonesian national team again showed strength. Nova Arianto's team doubled the goal to 2-0 through the execution of Dafa Zaidan El Fikri after continuing Josh Holong's assist which also closed the first half.

Entering the second half, the game was getting hotter because Vietnam was also increasingly ambitious to break the deadlock. In the 48th minute it was Vietnam's turn to get the chance, this time through Nguyen Van Bach's shot which turned out to be still able to be driven away by Dafa Al Gasemi Setiawarman.

Throughout the second half, the appearance of the Indonesian national team was very convincing. No half-hearted Nova Arianto's team added three goals to lead to 5-0.

The three goals in the second half, which further widened the distance from Vietnam's pursuit, were contributed by Daniel Alfrido (75'), plus Zahaby Gholy (78') who was his brace in this match and was perfected by Daniel Alfrido (87') who was also his brace.
