JAKARTA - Beckham Putra looked stunning when the U-22 Indonesian national team won 2-1 over Cambodia in the last match of the 2023 SEA Games Group A, Wednesday, May 10.

This match became Beckham's stage dancing on the field. He paid for the full trust of coach Indra Sjafri from the start of the match.

Beckham in the fourth match in Cambodia could enter as the first eleven players to play after previously being a reserve. This condition makes the motivation of the player from West Java increase.

In fact, in the match which was witnessed by tens of thousands of supporters, he was able to score the victory goal for the Garuda Muda Team with a final score of 2-1. Another goal was scored by Titan Agung and from Cambodia was scored by Sin Sovannmakara.

"I played fun after being trusted by the coach. The game was my show," said Beckham Putra after the match.

The Persib Bandung team player admitted that the victory of the Indonesian national team over Cambodia was a good capital to face the semifinal match even though the opponent was uncertain, namely Thailand or Vietnam because the Group B match had not yet been completed.

"Whoever the opponent is, we are ready," Beckham said with a smile.

The Indonesian national team ended the 2023 SEA Games Group A match with four consecutive wins. Now Indra Sjafri's national team is at the top of the standings with 12 points. In second place is Myanmar with nine points from four matches and takes it to the semifinals.

Before being conceded by Cambodian player Sin Sovannmakara, the Garuda Muda national team goal was never conceded. This is an extraordinary achievement.
