00:00Hey, welcome back to the CU Morning Show.
00:04Indonesian Under-23 head coach Hintayong revealed a number of challenges that the young Garuda
00:09squad must face ahead of the Olympic playoff against Guinea later today.
00:13Oh, this is very exciting, discussing this.
00:15Definitely Indonesia will not only miss team captain Gris Girido, but also said to be tired
00:21as they adapt to weather conditions and training fields in France.
00:26The Indonesian Under-23 national football team continues to train ahead of the 2024
00:31Paris Olympic playoffs round.
00:33The team arrived in France on Monday afternoon and will face Guinea later today.
00:38Indonesia will be without captain Gris Girido, who is suspended after receiving a red card
00:42in the Under-23 semifinal against Uzbekistan.
00:45The Garuda squad has called in Alfendra Dewanga to catch up the defense, while the arrivals
00:51of Elkham Bagat and Justin Hoebner remain unclear.
00:55Hintayong focused on improving the players' fitness in training.
00:58The players were only given light physical training and a little tactical training to
01:03hone their finishing touch, which had been sluggish in the last two matches.
01:09The South Korean coach also highlighted the quality of the training fields and food intake
01:14in France.
01:16The players have traveled a long distance and are tired.
01:22As they recover, we will do some tactical training.
01:28As you can see, we are wearing thick jackets.
01:33The temperature difference is quite severe, so it is very important for the players to
01:40take care of themselves.
01:45We are trying to adjust their condition as much as possible.
01:52After we decided to come to Paris from Doha, we checked in at the hotel.
02:00The food and hotel food was not as good as we expected, so we had a hard time.
02:08The players are in good shape, but it is difficult for them to sleep well.
02:17The coach contacted us too much compared to Qatar.
02:21But he said this is the best, so we have no choice but to adapt to the training.
02:29I don't know if the visa for Doha is being issued right now.
02:35But it is a fact that we are coming.
03:06We will discuss the match and the prediction of the final score.
03:10Good morning, Ali. Welcome back to the team.
03:12Thanks for having me.
03:13You are an official here in our program.
03:16Thank you for it.
03:17I am super excited.
03:18You are excited for this?
03:20Yes, super excited. Are you?
03:21Yes, definitely.
03:22We are not going to talk about the prediction just yet.
03:25I mean, you already met with Paul and talked about the tactics and whatnot.
03:29But now, after losing the two consecutive matches on the Asian U23 Cup,
03:35what would be evaluated, you think, from the young Garuda squad, in your opinion?
03:40First of all, we have to maintain our focus and we have to maintain the mental state.
03:46Because in this situation, we have to put, as you said, the two consecutive losses behind us.
03:53Because we cannot face the future with that burden in our back.
03:58So, we have to forget that.
04:00We have to see it as a new, fresh, clear chance to do something that we never dared to dream before.
04:09Playing in the Olympics, men's football, playing in an international stage like this.
04:13And we are just 90 minutes or 120 minutes away from that.
04:17Can you imagine?
04:19You are counting the minutes to the second, Ali.
04:22So, maybe I am different with other football analysts or anything.
04:27But I am not going to put myself as, come on, the job is not done.
04:31No, no, no.
04:32For me personally, the moment they receive, the moment they get to the semi-final,
04:40they just surpassed the target.
04:42So, after that, I want the team to enjoy the football.
04:46Just like I said to Paul before, I want the team and Sintayong to recall the player.
04:51You have to have fun again.
04:54Because you already showed us, you are very good to watch.
04:58You are very fun to watch football.
04:59So, against Iraq, against Uzbek, somehow we forget.
05:03Because we are really tired.
05:06We are really exhausted both mentally and physically.
05:10So, against Guinea tonight, I want the player to just forget that.
05:18Just enjoy yourself.
05:20Just play anything you can.
05:23Do not think about if we lose, the netizens will, you know.
05:29Because it is not fair.
05:31Just like in the third place playoff, some players play below the par
05:37and one nation strikes them.
05:40So, I do not want that to happen.
05:43Because this team unites the nation.
05:46You see, this team makes me to watch the football under 23,
05:51at 3 in the morning, 4 in the morning.
05:53I have never done before.
05:54And this team also makes me get the national team jersey for the first time in my life.
06:00Because I am really proud with this team.
06:03That's right.
06:04Why don't…
06:05We will all be proud, right?
06:07Yes, why not?
06:08But Indra, I love Ali because he is already very philosophical
06:12and putting the jobs not done Kobe Bryant quotes in there.
06:16Even though we are talking about football, you have some basketball essence in there.
06:20Agenda, but you were saying that it seems that they have a chip on their shoulder,
06:23especially with the last two games.
06:25Yes, in the last two games against Iraq and Uzbekistan,
06:29we did not show our strength.
06:32Because our strength is a position football, position play,
06:35with a link up between players,
06:38especially Ivar Jenner and Nathan Choaun in the midfield.
06:43After them, we had a vision to approach the ball to the flank,
06:49especially to the left flank with Arhan.
06:52And then Arhan to strike the ball to the center of the box.
06:56That's our play.
06:57But against Iraq and Uzbek, we didn't show that.
07:02Something wrong.
07:04What I see, what I saw is our mental state is not really good.
07:10Because we, I don't want to say we fear with Iraq, but we show that.
07:17Against Korea, we really played good in the first half.
07:21Two near leading, and then we made a mistake in the second half,
07:252-1 and 2-2, and then extra time.
07:28I don't want that to happen tonight,
07:31because I don't want to see a real burden in the chip,
07:35let's just say, in the team.
07:37That's why I like Sintayong when they land in Paris.
07:42It's not about drilling, exercising, prepare for the opponent.
07:46No, Sintayong want the team to enjoy.
07:49You are the center of Europe in Paris, enjoy your time.
07:53I see some players like Hoki Charaka taking pictures in front of the Eiffel Tower.
07:58Just have fun, because at the end of the day,
08:01this is a bunch of nation heroes who surpassed the target.
08:06And just one game away from greatness.
08:10Why don't we support them?
08:12Just like in badminton, nation heroes in the Uber and Thomas Cup,
08:15we're really proud of them.
08:17We don't have a right, I say it again,
08:19we don't have a right to say bad things for them.
08:22So I just want to make clear again,
08:26these teams already surpassed the target,
08:28I really make them proud.
08:30So just against Guinea, which I said,
08:35the chance is not really great,
08:38but we have to put this team behind us.
08:42Yeah, be optimistic.
08:44Well, you know, no matter what, we still want to win.
08:48Of course, we need to win.
08:50You mentioned a little bit about the physical,
08:53and the coach already mentioned,
08:55there's a trip from Qatar to France,
08:58he even mentioned about what your intake is,
09:01so what's your take on the physical and mental condition of our players?
09:05Yes, I like the way you're focusing on the mental,
09:08because it's not only mental,
09:10also for physics,
09:12because it's a really tiring journey in Qatar,
09:15and then really tiring from Qatar to France,
09:19not only the difference of time zone,
09:22and then it's a difference of climate too.
09:25We have to adapt with that.
09:27And then, just like in the VT before,
09:29the grass quality is not really satisfying for Mr. Santayo.
09:33And then, yeah, so we have a lot to adapt,
09:37and then we have to focus with our play.
09:41We have to remain calm,
09:43because focus, calm, is leading to concentration.
09:47Against Guinea, maybe we'll talk about the tactic later on,
09:51but against Guinea, we will receive the defending set piece,
09:55corner, free kick.
09:57They have a lot of tall stature,
10:00powerful physical strength,
10:03so we will face that.
10:06So focus, concentration, it should be our main power.
10:10Okay, so focus is for the young Garuda squad.
10:13In regards to what we were speaking about,
10:15physical and also mental health right here,
10:18let's talk about the opponent, the Guinea squad.
10:20What would be their strength and also their weaknesses,
10:23in your point of view?
10:24Just like I said before, the Guinea power strength
10:27is on the physical approach,
10:30you know, one-on-one, you know, one-on-one take on.
10:34They're really big, they're really strong.
10:36And one thing maybe people forget,
10:39the only four players from local competition in Guinea,
10:41the rest is majority play in Europe.
10:43Oh, okay.
10:44Yes, just like Elias Moriba,
10:46the graduate from Barcelona, Cameroon,
10:48they now play in the Getafe,
10:49also majority play in the Ligue 1 from France,
10:53play in Auxerre, Reims, Lyon.
10:56So the football knowledge, the daily experience,
11:03it's a kind of, maybe I don't want to say gap,
11:07but it's going to be something in this game.
11:10So that's something we have to accept.
11:14But just like Indonesia, Guinea also a surprising team
11:18in the Afghan U23 nation last year, 2023.
11:24And then we have to remain again.
11:26They played last year and the last game this year
11:29is against USA in March.
11:32Until then, they never played again.
11:34So they're not exhausted, they're not in, you know,
11:38tiring journey, no, they're really fresh.
11:41But does it matter?
11:43Yes, because somehow it's going to be a physical game.
11:46It's going to be really tiring for both teams.
11:50But for Guinea, the coach said,
11:53I'm not accepting nothing but win.
11:56Of course, everyone wants a W.
11:58Yes.
11:59But this team, Indonesia, will do something.
12:02We're not going to surrender with this team.
12:05We have something to do.
12:07We have something we can do.
12:10Like what?
12:11Just like I said before,
12:12make a position, play between four and five players,
12:16do something with Jenner and Nathan.
12:18And then we can hope something from the game
12:21because it's a football game.
12:22Anything can happen.
12:23Yeah.
12:24But my concern is about the back three.
12:28Habner is not there.
12:30And then Elken Bagot is not there.
12:33Yes, Dewanga there.
12:34And then Ferrari and also Coman will be there.
12:39But the difference of the size of the body, the height,
12:43is going to be something we can disclosure
12:47because they will play aerial duel with us.
12:51But I'm not sure we can cope with that.
12:54So if we can do something.
12:57The weakness of tall players is the low ball.
13:01So if we can maintain the ball, stay low,
13:04do our ball, do our play, we can do something.
13:06But unless that, I'm not sure.
13:08I'm not sure.
13:09Okay.
13:10The strategy is right there.
13:12Let's talk more about the tactical.
13:15You mentioned earlier.
13:16So Indonesia reportedly that the captain is not going to play
13:22because he received the red card again.
13:26While Justin Huber, as you mentioned before,
13:29and Elken will not be featured because of the club restriction.
13:33However, Dewanga had traveled to Paris from Semarang two days ago
13:40and will be available.
13:42In your opinion, who will play at the back against Guinea
13:46and who will be the captain this time around?
13:49You mentioned about Dewanga before.
13:51Dewanga arrived in Paris at eight in the morning.
13:54At nine, he's already in the team squad.
13:58So it's going to be something not easy
14:02because from Semarang to Jakarta, Jakarta to Doha, Doha to Paris.
14:06It's going to be tiring for...
14:0817 hours.
14:0917 hours of flight for Dewanga.
14:11But Dewanga is not someone strange for this squad.
14:15Unlucky, he's injured in the IFF under 23.
14:20And then if not, he's going to be in the squad.
14:22But because he's injured and now he's back to the game
14:26and he's back to the squad.
14:28Yes, it's going to be a good addition.
14:30Just like you mentioned before, Elkan Bagot.
14:32His team is in Ipswich Town.
14:34The team is successful to promote to the Premier League.
14:36I don't see any reason.
14:38I don't see any reason why the team didn't allow Elkan Bagot to Indonesia.
14:45Maybe Hoopner, maybe Osaka, maybe more reasonable
14:49didn't allow Hoopner to the team.
14:51But Elkan Bagot, I don't see any reason
14:53because the team is not in the league, not in the game.
14:57The season is already done.
14:59The team is finished to promote.
15:01I don't see why.
15:02I don't see why.
15:03But I really hope Elkan Bagot going to the team.
15:05But unfortunately, he's confirmed not going to the team.
15:09So the back three is going to be Komang, Ferrari, and Dewanga.
15:14And the captain will be Arhan.
15:16Yes, the third captain.
15:17Because the first captain is Rido.
15:21And then Hoopner.
15:22And then third is Arhan.
15:24So Arhan will be on the captain, yes.
15:26All right, so before you're going to ask the final question,
15:28I'm going to let you do the honor.
15:29Just one more little bit question for me.
15:31It seems that right now, the young Garuda squad, under 23,
15:34they're very, they have this really good chemistry.
15:36They're gelling like none other.
15:38So, I mean, it seems that you're very passionate
15:41and supporting them also.
15:42I mean, this is something that we really need to see
15:44definitely in the world of football right here
15:47for our national squad.
15:48So how do you foresee their future together?
15:50The future, yes, good question.
15:52Because just a game away,
15:54they're going to play the international stage
15:56in the Olympics.
15:58What's really good in Olympics, the scouts.
16:01And the pride of the player, the family of the player,
16:05the nation, it's going to be something.
16:08It's going to be huge for the future.
16:11If we win, we're really proud with the team.
16:14But if we don't win, we lost against Guinea,
16:17we're back to Indonesia, we still continue the project.
16:20Because what?
16:21At the end of the day, we still surpass our target.
16:24Yes.
16:25We still surpass our target.
16:26Shout out to the team, shout out to the coaching staff,
16:29shout out to, you know, Sintayong.
16:32So it's not going to be, okay, you lost in Iraq,
16:36you lost against Iraq, you lost against Uzbek,
16:38you're ultimately a bad team.
16:40No, no, no.
16:41It's a team that United Nations,
16:43it's a team that really makes us proud.
16:45And what the future really, you know, help from them
16:50is the future that this team that made history,
16:53that almost played in the Olympics,
16:56really, you know, beat Korea, really good.
16:59So for the future, I believe they have a really bright future.
17:03Right there.
17:04And you do the honor.
17:06Most important questions.
17:08Yes.
17:09Your prediction.
17:10I hate this.
17:12But we have to, but okay.
17:14I believe we, Sintayong also, Sintayong already,
17:18you know, read the game, already seen some footage
17:21from Guinea.
17:23Because the last game is the last year,
17:25so there's no something new with the team.
17:28But I believe Sintayong have, you know, something to do.
17:34And that is stay the ball low, you know, make short passes.
17:39Do not attempt to, you know, like previously,
17:43we focus on the throw-in with Arjan.
17:47Because the opponent will stay in the near post
17:51to receive the ball, aerial ball.
17:53No, aerial ball is no-no.
17:55Aerial dual is no-no.
17:56Stay the ball low to make short passes, quick passes,
18:00and a quick, you know, without the ball position.
18:02So, yeah, that is strategy.
18:05The formation will be still 3-4-3,
18:07because what is good in the 3-4-3,
18:10if Arjan going forward, the rest of the defender
18:14will be able to, you know, cover the area.
18:16And Ryo Fahmy going to forward,
18:18Arjan and the rest of the center-back
18:20are going to cover the area.
18:21That's really good with this 3-4-3.
18:23So I believe the game and the game plan
18:27has already been, you know, talked about.
18:29So from yesterday until today,
18:32it's more just like, you know, the cohesion,
18:35the gelling, the chemistry, and, you know,
18:37really read the game, because we face the team,
18:41the opponent, that's really good.
18:43The aerial duel is going to be really physical.
18:46They're going to be hard to beat them.
18:48So, yeah, it's not going to be a huge chance,
18:53but we have a slight chance to slot our spot
18:57in the final group stage for the Olympics
19:01against France, New Zealand, and USA.
19:05Can you imagine that, that squad?
19:07Definitely.
19:08And, you know, it seems that the discussion that we had,
19:11I think you always put implementing to all of us
19:15that this young Garuda squad
19:18had imprinted a new history in Indonesia,
19:21especially in the world of Indonesian football.
19:24So no matter what the result is,
19:25we're very proud of them.
19:27They had made history,
19:28and definitely their experiences
19:30is going to take them forward
19:32for their future and the game,
19:34and then for the Garuda squad itself.
19:36Thanks for wrapping it up.
19:37So thank you very much.
19:39Alibaba is there for the fun.
19:40Definitely, we're going to see you more after the game,
19:43and maybe we'll have the Paris Olympics too.
19:46So thank you so much for being here
19:48and giving us the excitement.
19:50So it's under 120 minutes now
19:52before the game.
19:53I am counting down.
19:54So we're going to take a break right now,
19:56but stay tuned.
19:57We're here on the Sea Morning Show.
19:58We have a live report from the Jakarta Cathedral,
20:00which is holding three masses today
20:02to commemorate the ascension of Jesus Christ.
20:04It's coming up next.
