JAKARTA – The Indonesian national team will play an away match against Brunei Darussalam in the second leg of the first round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifications in the Asian zone. The two teams will meet at the Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah Stadium, Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei, Tuesday, October 17.
The Indonesian national team played this match in a relaxed manner. Previously, the two teams played the first leg match at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK) on Thursday last week. At that time, Indonesia won by a landslide, 6-0.
This victory means that Indonesia's chances of qualifying for the second round are very high. Thus, when playing away games, Shin Tae-yong's troops actually don't need to appear persistent.
Even if you lose with a score of 0-5, Rizky Ridho and his friends will still be safe in the second round. On the other hand, the most unpleasant situation had to be faced by the home team.
The team coached by Mario Rivera needs a miracle to qualify for the next stage. The reason is, they have to win by a landslide with a score of seven goals without reply or more.
Even though it is somewhat impossible, Rivera has promised to surprise Indonesia when they play at home. He conveyed this after losing at Gelora Bung Karno so that Indonesia still needs to be alert.

Indonesia itself is certain to be without Marselino Ferdinand because his injury has not yet recovered. The player previously also did not play in the first leg.
However, Marselino's absence will not have a significant impact on Shin Tae-yong's squad. Garuda is still the favorite to win over the team nicknamed Tebuan.
Even without Marselino, Shin can return to playing Rafael Struick. This player was absent in the first match because his health condition was not yet fully fit.
