On the other hand, there was bad news received by the Indonesian national team ahead of Japan's meeting. It is certain that the Garuda squad will not be strengthened by Mees Hilgers.

The player was forced to miss the Garuda Squad due to injury after defending FC Twenty vs Ajax. This was confirmed by the PSSI Exco Member, Arya Sinulingga.

However, in addition, PSSI will continue to monitor the development and condition of Mees Hilgers. If his condition recovers, it is not impossible that he will be included in the follow-up match against Saudi Arabia.
