JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team coach Shin Tae-yong has not been satisfied with the adaptation of his foster children while in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), in order to prepare for the 2022 World Cup Qualification.
As quoted by Antara from the PSSI official website in Jakarta, Wednesday, the assessment was conveyed by Shin after seeing the performance of his foster children in training at the JA Center of Excellence and Shooting Club field, Dubai, Tuesday afternoon local time.
"We will still see developments until the weekend. However, I feel that the players are trying to adapt more quickly, especially to the temperature here," said Shin, quoted from the official website of PSSI in Jakarta, Wednesday.
The South Korean tactician also asked Evan Dimas and his friends to work hard to improve performance.
Shin didn't want the situation during practice, where the players were sometimes still late in moving, to occur during the match.
"I still see some players moving late. That should not happen in the match. I emphasize the players to be more serious and focused," said the South Korean national team coach at the 2018 World Cup.
Meanwhile PSSI Chairman Mochamad Iriawan hopes that the Indonesian national team squad will be able to conquer various obstacles while training in Dubai.
Iriawan also emphasized that his party always supports Shin Tae-yong's programs for the national team.
"I believe there are still many training programs from the coach to improve the players' abilities. We hope the players can quickly adapt well in Dubai and their condition is always fit and solid," said the man who is usually called Iwan Bule.
