tvOnenews.com – Indonesian National Team coach Shin Tae-yong finally spoke honestly about the factors that caused his team to fail to win over Bahrain in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
According to Shin Tae-yong, the failure was not solely due to the injustice of referee Ahmed Al-Kaf, but there were other factors that made the Indonesian national team draw with Bahrain.
As is known, initially the journey of the Indonesian National Team in the third round of the 2026 World Cup Qualification was quite impressive. They successfully matched Saudi Arabia and Australia.
This achievement seemed surprising because Saudi Arabia and Australia were in fact the favorite teams to qualify for the World Cup finals.
At the same time, the Garuda squad occupied the top four positions or the safe zone to advance to the fourth round in the 2026 World Cup Qualifications.
So it is not surprising that the Indonesian National Team deserves to be the favorite when they visit the headquarters of Bahrain and China in the match in October 2024.
However, the facts that happened were quite the opposite. The Indonesian national team was only able to gain one point from visits to Bahrain and China.
