Nova Arianto has prepared a strategy for the U-17 Indonesian national team against Brazil U-17 (doc. Indonesian national team).

JAKARTA - The head coach of the U-17 Indonesian national team, Nova Arianto, emphasized that his team focused on recovering from the physical condition of the players after undergoing the first match of Group H of the 2025 World Cup against Zambia u-17 in the Aspire Zone, Al Rayyan, Qatar, November 4, 2025.

Furthermore, the Garuda Muda squad is scheduled to face Brazil u-17 on Friday, November 7, 2025, in the same place.

"On Wednesday, November 5, 2025, yesterday we focused on recovery after the match against Zambia. In addition, there are several schemes that we have prepared ahead of the match against Brazil."

"Only after that, we will enter the tactical session on November 6, 2025," Nova said after chairing the training session.

Nova realized that the quality of the South American team should be watched out for. However, he stressed the importance of maintaining the mentality and confidence of the young Indonesian players.

"I can say Brazil won the 2025 U-17 World Cup. However, I ask the players not to be afraid of the situation."

"I hope they have a strong mentality. At least we can balance them. Who knows, we can win," he said.

Furthermore, he also ensured that the team's condition in general was in good condition. The only player who had received treatment was Fabio Azkairawan, but his condition is now getting better.

"The condition of the players is all quite good. Fabio had a collision, but now it has improved. Hopefully he can come back and be ready to face Brazil," he said.

The U-17 Indonesian national team previously had to admit the advantage of Zambia 1-3 in the opening match.

Even so, Garuda Muda had taken the lead through Zahaby Gholy's quick goal in the first half and showed a positive game in the second half.

The match against Brazil will be an opportunity for Nova Arianto and his team to rise and achieve maximum results in this prestigious event.
