JAKARTA - Atlético Madrid U-18 won 2-1 over Indonesia All-Star U-20 at the 2021 International Youth Championship (IYC), Sunday, April 17 evening. This victory brought the Spanish team to qualify for the final round.
Despite winning, Atletico Madrid coach Daniel Perez said his team had difficulties when dealing with Indonesia All-Star. One of the factors is the age difference.
He said that the older age of Indonesia All-Star made the players have to work hard. "That's why our players have shown extraordinary struggles," he said, as quoted by Antara, Monday, April 18.
The quality factor of the Indonesian All-Star players is also the cause of Atletico Madrid having to struggle to win.
"We do have difficulties. However, we are slowly getting over it," said Daniel.
He then gave praise to Gonzalo Delgado who appeared extraordinary. The Atletico Madrid goalkeeper managed to fend off a number of opportunities that Indonesia All-Star had.
In this match, Indonesia's All-Star actually won first through Muhammad Fajar Faturahman. However, goals from Ninte and Ivan Hernandez Nunez led Atletico Madrid to the 2021 IYC final to meet Barcelona U-18.
