JAKARTA - The U-19 Indonesian national team player, Welber Jardim, is determined to help the team wipe out all matches with a victory at the 2024 Seoul Earth On Us Cup.

The Seoul Earth On Us Cup 2024 agenda will take place from August 28 to September 1, 2024. On that occasion, the U-19 Indonesian national team will meet Argentina, South Korea, and Thailand.

Argentina will be Indonesia's first opponent on August 28, 2024. After that, Garuda Muda will fight Thailand on August 30, 2024 and finally meet South Korea as the host on September 1, 2024.

Welber looked at the match enthusiastically. Although he will face a big team like Argentina, it does not make the 17-year-old's guts shrink.

"For me, the match in South Korea against Argentina will be what I know they play hard. We have to practice harder, harder than them so they can play better," Welber said in a statement quoted on Thursday, August 1, 2024.

"Our target is now to work hard and be able to win there. We want to win all matches so that all teams know who Indonesia is," he said.

Despite having a burning passion to give the best performance, Welber also understands his condition. You see, at the 2024 AFF U-19 Cup, Welfer was injured and admitted that he still felt pain in the knee.

In fact, when the final against Thailand U-19, the young player belonging to Sao Paulo admitted that the injury had reached the waist.

"Yes, it still hurts, there is a problem in my knee a little, but I continue to therapy. The final time starts to feel up to the waist, but now I have therapy," he said.

Welber is expected to be the pillar of the U-19 Indonesian national team at the Seoul Earth On Us Cup 2024. Its performance continued to climb when it brought Indonesia to win the 2024 AFF U-19 Cup.

He looks more comfortable playing in his new position as a midfielder. The trust was also shown by coach Indra Sjafri by continuing to play him as a starter in the last three matches of the U-19 Indonesian national team until the final.
