JAKARTA - Shin Tae-yong emphasized that the Indonesian national team is ready to fight against Bahrain at the Bahrain National Stadium, Riffa, on Thursday, October 10, 2024.

The South Korean coach said he and his team had carefully prepared their troops to undergo the match during the 2026 World Cup Qualification Third Round.

The readiness referred to by Shin Tae-yong includes a tactical, mental, and physical perspective.

"This is an important match for us, as well as for Bahrain of course. The result of this match is very important."

"We have prepared everything for this match seriously."

"So, I hope we can present a good performance in the match later," said Shin Tae-yong in a press conference session ahead of the match, Wednesday, October 9, 2024.

The squad's depth has also been thought of by Shin Tae-yong carefully. Therefore, he does not want the public to still discriminate between descendants or naturalization and local players.

You see, he has prepared all of his employees to the fullest. They will work hard together for the target of bringing home three points from Bahrain.

"All the players in the team have done good things so far. Not only players of descent (which contributed), but also all the players in the team gave their best."

"So, I think in the match versus Bahrain we will also show our best performance," he said.

An additional three points will certainly be very important for the Indonesian national team in hunting tickets to the 2026 World Cup finals.

So far, the Garuda Squad is still in fourth position in Group C of the 2026 World Cup Qualification Third Round with two points.

The Indonesian national team got the two points after holding back the two giants Asia, Saudi Arabia (1-1) and Australia (0-0).
