The meeting took place on January 29 in Jakarta, where the hosts won with a score of 5:3.
According to Jetibaev, the team showed good football, and many actions on the field were positive. The tactics we chose worked. It is important to note that in such matches, leadership qualities and individual skills of the players become the determining factor, and we had plenty of those.
We thoroughly analyzed the opponent, recognized their strengths, especially in set pieces, and were able to almost completely neutralize them. However, combinations played from outside the penalty area managed to get through. Although our guys acted confidently in positional defense, we lacked accuracy in finishing shots. Nevertheless, there were plenty of opportunities for attack. We gained a lot of valuable experience from this game and the atmosphere in which it took place," the coach noted after the match.
