JAKARTA - The Indonesian U-20 team won 3-2 over Antalyaspor U-18 in a test match in Turkey, Tuesday, November 8, 2022. Despite winning, the Garuda Nusantara squad still has a lot of homework to do.
This is recognized by the Indonesian U-20 player, Marselino Ferdinand. One of the things that Shin Tae-yong's players must mature is the switch play (transfer of players and the interplay ball).
According to Marselino, he and his other colleagues were not quite effective in a match.
"We have to move faster, first before the ball is passed in the next direction," said Marselino as followed by Antara, Wednesday, October 9, 2022.
Marselino said that was the evaluation after the match against Antalyaspor U-18. This strategy, according to him, needs to be maximized because Indonesia needs to play pressing in the opponent's penalty area.
He then commented on his team's victory over Antalyaspor. According to him, the team is working hard.
"The match was tight and exciting. We won because we managed to maximize opportunities," said the player from Persebaya Surabaya.
Previously, the U-20 Indonesian team coach, Shin Tae-yong, said there were several shortcomings that the players had to fix. As Marselino said, the quality of the touch of the ball must be improved.
In addition, the mentality of the Garuda Nusantara players must also be improved. He said Indonesian players were still afraid to see the posture of players from Europe who were taller and bigger than them. Shin saw that Muhammad Ferrari and his friends were already afraid before competing.
