Indonesia receives shocking news from 250 billion VND star before match against Bahrain

On March 20, Indonesia lost 1-5 to Australia in the 7th match of Group C, the third qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia.

Center-back Mees Hilgers is at risk of missing the match against Bahrain.

This defeat pushed Indonesia down to 4th place in Group C with 6 points, equal to the two teams below, Bahrain and China, but ranked higher thanks to the additional index.

Not only did they lose, the Indonesian team also received shocking news from two stars Sandy Walsh and Mees Hilgers.

Specifically, in the 60th minute of the match against Australia, Mees Hilgers was injured and had to give way to Sandy Walsh.

But just 6 minutes after entering the field, Sandy Walsh was also injured and could not continue playing.

Mees Hilgers is a Dutch player who has recently acquired Indonesian citizenship. He currently plays for Dutch club Twente and is valued at 9 million euros (about 250 billion VND).

Meanwhile, Sandy Walsh is Indonesia's first naturalized player and has made 19 appearances for the country's national team.

The possibility of this central defender duo playing in the match against Bahrain is still uncertain.

If both Sandy Walsh and Mees Hilgers are unable to play, this is certainly not good news for coach Kluivert.

It is important to know that the upcoming match against Bahrain is very important for Indonesia.

If they cannot beat this opponent, Indonesia will no longer have many chances to compete for a ticket to the 2026 World Cup.

According to the schedule, the match between Indonesia and Bahrain will take place on March 25 at Bung Karno Stadium.
