The U-23 Indonesian national team has learned from the first meeting against Mali U-23 (doc. Indonesian national team).

JAKARTA - The U-23 Indonesian national team will undergo a second meeting against Mali U-23 on the trial agenda ahead of the 2025 SEA Games. The match against Mali will be held at Pakansari Stadium on Tuesday, November 18, 2025.

This match could be a retaliation for the U-23 Indonesian national team to Mali after losing 0-3 in the first meeting last weekend.

At this second meeting, the Garuda Muda squad had to perform better in order to gain confidence in preparation for the 2025 SEA Games.

Reflecting on the first match, Ivar Jenner and his friends were able to put up a fierce fight against Mali U-23. However, a number of mistakes made Indra Sjafri's team fail to score.

A number of notes were pocketed by Indra Sjafri so that his troops could improve. Although the result of the match is not as expected, he assesses that there are still several positive aspects shown by the players.

"First, of course from the results and goals that occurred, we are not satisfied, yes. However, in this case there are some positive things that we do."

"In total, I don't think we played too badly and there was a mistake in the set piece," said Indra.

The coach from Sumatra further emphasized that this trial match provides a clear picture of aspects that need to be improved towards the 2025 SEA Games.

"What is clear is that from the match we played tonight, there are indeed many things that we have to improve on going to the 2025 SEA Games. There are several things that our response is not right. That is what we have to improve," he said.

He also highlighted that the final settlement was not yet optimal and felt to be not sharp.

"In terms of productivity there are also several opportunities, but not goals. However, individually, maybe I will improve the quality of individual players."

"The most important thing to face the 2025 SEA Games is that of these 30 players, we can set the best players."

"Hopefully with the quality of the players that will be, we can perform better than this match," said Indra.

In the Mali camp, they will continue to play their second match against Indonesia U-23 seriously. They will not underestimate Garuda Muda even though they won 3-0 in the first match.

"We have little time to recover. We will prepare for this match very seriously."

"The goal is to play a good game, see some players who haven't played much. We know that we are facing a good team who lost in the first game and want to win a second game," said Mali U-23 coach Fousseni Diawara.
