JAKARTA - The coach of the Indonesian national team, Shin Tae-yong (STY), is confirmed to remain in charge of the Garuda Squad. He will be maintained at least until his work contract expires..
This was conveyed by the General Chairperson of PSSI, Mochamad Iriawan. According to him, there were several assessments that prevented the South Korean coach even though he failed to bring the Indonesian national team to fail to win the 2022 AFF Cup.
Iriawan said he was satisfied with STY's performance, especially with his bold decisions in the national team.
"So far I am very satisfied with Coach Shin's performance with some bold decisions taken by him," Iriawan wrote on his Instagram quoted Thursday, January 26.
The man who is familiarly called Iwan Bule said that STY's decision greatly affected the development of the national team. During the two years of working, the 52-year-old coach was able to present the regeneration of players who also boosted Indonesia's ranking in the FIFA ranks.
"If you pay attention, the current regeneration of the Indonesian national team is the fastest, the average age is 23 years and only set aside 20 percent of players are more senior," he wrote.
"Shin's coach's decision to take part in almost all age categories is the key to ongoing regeneration so that the estuary is ranked 151 FIFA and qualified for the Asian Cup finals after a long time," continued Iriawan.
With Shin Tae-yong's achievements so far, Iriawan also emphasized that everyone must believe in the process that is being carried out. Because so far, little by little, it seems that they can answer the challenges in dealing with the Garuda Squad.
"Of course let's believe in the process together. It can't be done instantly to produce achievements in the near future, but this record can be proof that coach Shin successfully answered the challenges he carried out," he concluded.
Previously, there was speculation that Shin Tae-yong would terminate his contract. This follows the coach's return to South Korea after failing at the 2022 AFF Cup. In fact, he did get a share of the holiday from PSSI.
