Brunei Darussalam Diprediksi Jadi Lumbung Gol Timnas Indonesia, Shin Tae-yong Enggan Memperhorkan Lawan

JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will face Brunei Darussalam in the 2022 AFF Cup match. Both teams will clash at the KLFA Stadium, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Monday, December 26.

On paper, the Indonesian national team is much more favored. Marc Klok and his friends have a quality that feels much better than Brunei Darussalam.

Moreover, Brunei suffered two consecutive defeats in the previous match. Worse yet, they have conceded 10 goals from those two matches.

Brunei is also considered to be the goal barn for the Garuda Squad. However, the coach of the Indonesian national team, Shin Tae-yong, did not think so.

He asked the players not to be complacent. The Korean coach then warned his team to be wary of Brunei who could give a surprise.

"For Brunei, of course, they cannot be considered weak, even though they can enter the 2022 AFF Cup also through the playoffs. From us, we will also definitely give our best when facing them," Shin said on the official PSSI website.

He also refused to answer reporters' questions regarding the target goal against Brunei. The former South Korean national team coach felt the question was not appropriate to ask.

He felt it was very demeaning to the opponent.

"I can't mention it because I don't respect the opponent. So we will stay focused as best we can," concluded Shin Tae-yong.
