Not only is he good at concocting tactics for the national team, on that occasion, Shin Tae-yong also showed his ability to play golf. He and the Menpora even had time to compete.

"While playing golf, we also discussed the development of Indonesian football and the future prospects," said the Minister of Youth and Sports.

This casual meeting between the two ended after completing 18 holes and was followed by lunch together. After that, the Minister of Youth and Sports explained that Shin Tae-yong would return to Bali to lead the national team's training camp before appearing in the 2022 AFF U-23 Cup.

"After finishing the 18-hole game, we enjoyed lunch together before Coach Shin Tae-yong flew to Bali to lead the national team practice which was being prepared for Cambodia next week," said Minister of Youth and Sports Amali.
