Shin Tae-yong Bilang Pemain Timnas Indonesia Harus Reply Budi, Kepada Siapa?
JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team coach, Shin Tae-yong, said his team had to win the 2022 AFF Cup. This is to return the favor.
Shin made this statement at the Rizal Memorial Manila Stadium in preparation for the final match of Group A of the 2022 AFF Cup against the Philippines. He said his team must return full support from PSSI by becoming champions.
"Players must be able to return the favor with champions," said Shin.
One form of support given is the provision of private aircraft for the Garuda Squad for away matches. According to him, this step made the team's preparation even better.
"The charter plane allowed us to prepare well for this AFF Cup," said the South Korean coach, as quoted by Antara, Sunday, January 1, 2023.
Before returning the favor, the Indonesian national team still had to overcome a number of obstacles first. The first is to qualify for the semifinals of Group A.
If qualified, Marc Klok and his friends had to go through two matches in the semifinals to enter the top party.
The challenge that lies ahead is the match against the Philippines. They must win, or at least draw, to be able to advance to the last four.
