Marselino Ferdinan received a red card.
Indonesia's key midfielder Marselino Ferdinan will not be able to play in the match against Vietnam on December 15. The star born in 2004 was sent off in the match against Laos on the evening of December 12 at Manahan Stadium (Surakarta, Indonesia).
Marselino Ferdinan was sent off after receiving two yellow cards in the match. The first incident occurred in the 40th minute, when Ferdinan committed a dangerous foul on Bounphachan Bounkong, who was making an impressive tackle. In the 69th minute, midfielder No. 7 committed a dangerous foul on the Lao player to prevent a quick counter-attack.
Marselino Ferdinan's red card came when Indonesia was in a favorable position, pressuring Laos in the beginning of the second half. In the end, the archipelago team could only get a draw with a weaker opponent. Not only that, this penalty also meant that Indonesia would lose Ferdinan in the match against Vietnam.
Marselino Ferdinan is absent with a red card.
In the match against Laos, Indonesia faced many difficulties. In the 9th minute, Panyavong opened the score for Laos with a powerful shot in the penalty area.
A few minutes later, Kadek Arel equalized for Indonesia in a chaotic situation that originated from a throw-in. The big surprise continued when Bounphachan Bounkong made a great pass for Phathana to raise the score to 2-1.
Laos conceded another goal from a throw-in. Ferrari scored the equalizer for Indonesia, making it 2-2. All four goals came within just 10 minutes.
This was a match where the Laos team played surprisingly well. Striker Bounphachan Bounkong left a strong impression. He dribbled the ball himself and created chances but unfortunately missed 3 times.
In the second half, the Lao team continued to make Indonesia falter many times. Unfortunately, Ferrari scored again to help the home team take the lead despite playing with one less player against Laos. In the 78th minute, Damoth Thongkhamsavath - a player of Vietnamese origin tried hard to save the ball and crossed it classy. Peeter jumped in to tap the ball in to seal the 3-3 victory.
In addition to the absence of key players, the Indonesian team also faces many physical disadvantages. They played two consecutive matches against physically strong and determined opponents such as Laos and Myanmar. Meanwhile, the Vietnamese team had 6 days off and had the advantage of playing at home.
If they defeat Indonesia, Vietnam will likely keep the top spot in Group B and avoid strong opponents like Thailand.
