Indonesian U-23 national team coach, Gerald Vanenburg, confirmed his team’s readiness to win in an important match against Malaysia in the final match of Group A AFF U-23 2025 Cup.
Although Indonesia only needs a draw to ensure a place in the semifinals, Vanenburg explained that ambitions to win remain a top priority. “I want to win every game, and I also want to win against Malaysia,” he told reporters at the Middle Stadium. This shows Vanenburg’s commitment in encouraging his team to play with the best performance.
This positive attitude also does not mean underestimating the strength of the opponent. Vanenburg specifically appreciated Malaysia’s ability, stating that they were a solid team despite experiencing unfavorable results in the previous match against the Philippines. “Malaysia is a very good team. They are not lucky in the game against the Philippines, but still show quality,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Indonesian U-23 national team is currently topping the Group A standings with a collection of 6 points. However, their position in the standings is quite vulnerable. Malaysia and the Philippines, which are below, are only three points. This situation requires Garuda Muda to be careful, because if they lose, their chances of staying at the top can disappear.
Vanenburg also paid special attention to the performance of the main goalkeeper, Muhammad Ardiansyah, who has recently been in the spotlight. “If he decides that he is the main goalkeeper, then I believe in him,” explained Vanenburg, showing great trust in the ability of the goalkeeper.
The match against Malaysia is not only a place to fight over points, but is also a “Malay derby” which has a deeper meaning for both teams. Both compete to show their respective advantages, and this makes the match more interesting to watch. Malaysia really needs victory to keep their chances of advanceing to the next stage, making this fight even more thrilling.
For the Indonesian U-23 national team, this match is a moment to show that they are ready to compete at the international level. Vanenburg emphasized the need for his team to perform optimally, not only to win but also to build confidence ahead of the semifinals. “We came with a clear goal and wanted to show that we could compete on a larger stage,” he added.
With the spirit and focus that has been instilled by Vanenburg, the players are expected to provide their best performance on the field. Support from supporters at the Bung Karno Stadium is expected to be an additional motivation for Garuda Muda. Every second in the match will be very meaningful, and all aspects of strategy and play techniques must be optimized to achieve the desired results.
This match is also expected to be a moment of proof for the Indonesian Young Team to achieve proud achievements at the Southeast Asian level. This match is not only about statistics and scores, but also about the spirit of fighting that must be demonstrated by the players. A convincing appearance can be the first step towards future success.
With the determination and careful preparation, the Indonesian U-23 national team is ready to face this challenge. The victory against Malaysia will increase the team’s confidence and be the key to continuing the journey at the 2025 AFF U-23 Cup. Indonesian soccer fans are waiting for the best action from Garuda Muda.
