00:00Erick Thohir, the head coach of the Indonesian national football team, gave his assessment
00:05after the match between the Indonesian team and Iraq,
00:08where Indonesia lost 2-0 in the second round of the Asia Qualification World Cup 2026.
00:16After the match was held at the main stadium of Glorabung Karno Jakarta on June 6,
00:22Erick said the evaluation needed to be done on the performance of the Indonesian national team.
00:26Erick said there were a number of mistakes made by the Indonesian team,
00:30starting from the handball to the red card given by Wasit,
00:34so Indonesia failed to win points.
00:37If I look at it, Iraq was pretty good, but we made a few mistakes ourselves.
00:43I hope the coach and the players will evaluate,
00:49because there are still 3 points that we have to make sure to qualify for the third round of the World Cup.
00:58According to Erick, the evaluation needs to be done,
01:01especially ahead of the game against the Philippines on June 11.
01:06Meanwhile, the Minister of Youth and Sports, optimistic about the Indonesian national team,
01:11can give a good performance in the upcoming match,
01:15he said there will be additional personnel expected to strengthen the Indonesian national team.
01:20I hope to meet the Philippines,
01:23God willing, even though the Philippines also wants to be like Indonesia,
01:27I also see that our preparation is also maximal,
01:32and later there will also be a penalty, in the Philippines there is Kelvin,
01:37hopefully it will boost the spirit too, but teamwork is the most important.
01:41The Indonesian national team failed to score a goal in Iraq,
01:45so two goals scored by Ali Jassim and Ayman Hussein were not returned until the end of the two games.
