Recently, Southeast Asian media has been abuzz with the news that Indonesia will play a friendly match with reigning world champions Argentina next June.
Will Argentina play a friendly match with Indonesia next June?
This is good news for Indonesian football in particular and regional fans in general.
But commenting on this, expert Mohamad Kusnaeni said that the air showdown has much professional significance for Indonesia.
“It is better for us to try more against opponents who are above us but not too far away. That is more useful from many aspects.
The friendly match with South Korea, for example, is also very interesting for the audience, although it may not be as exciting as the match with Argentina.
Similarly, the match with Thailand will certainly be exciting. Thailand's playing style is similar to Vietnam - our potential opponent," said Mr. Mohamad Kusnaeni.
On May 22, the Argentine Football Federation (AFA) confirmed that it will play a friendly match with Indonesia on June 19.
Before that, Messi and his teammates will face the Australian team on June 15 in China.
Expert Mohamad Kusnaeni continued to share: "The two teams at this time really have very different levels of expertise.
This match can affect the confidence of Indonesian players. It is also difficult for coaches to evaluate the players because our opponents are Messi and his teammates."
However, up to now, the Indonesian Football Federation (PSSI) has not yet announced specifically about this friendly match.
Previously, a member of the PSSI Executive Committee said that they would spend 5 million euros (about 117 billion VND) to invite "Albiceleste" to play a friendly match.
