On November 21, after the first six rounds of the World Cup Qualifiers Group Stage, Indonesia currently stands in third place in their group. The Indonesian media outlet bola has published an analysis of the national team’s qualification prospects.
The media outlet states that following their victory over Saudi Arabia, Indonesia’s hopes of qualifying for the World Cup have been reignited, as their head coach Shin Tae-yong mentioned, there is a chance for Indonesia to advance to the fourth stage of the qualifiers. Given the difficulty of catching up with group leaders Japan and the intense competition for second place, the stronger Australian team is more likely to secure this position.
The media further analyzes that Indonesia will face China and Bahrain at home, and Japan and Australia away. As long as they win against China and Bahrain at home to secure 6 points, and draw with Australia away, they will accumulate 7 points and qualify for the next stage.
