Apart from Diks, the Garuda Squad also lost Mees Hilgers due to injury first. With this situation, the potential composition of the squad will be estimated to be similar to the situation of the first meeting of the two teams in September 2024.
On the other hand, Saudi Arabia's condition is slightly better than the hosts. The Green Falcons have just stolen a point from Australia thanks to a 0-0 draw. In addition, the visitors also have more recovery time.
Even in different situations, Shin Tae-yong as the coach of the Indonesian national team is confident that his squad can get different results against Saudi Arabia.
"I believe in the players tomorrow the results will be different. However, it all depends on the struggle of the players against Saudi Arabia later."
"I hope the players are enthusiastic about the match later," said Shin Tae Yong at a press conference.
