Indonesian National Team Defeated by Iraq, Shin Tae-yong Puts His Body on Jordi Amat

Todaysgist.com, Jakarta – Indonesian national team coach Shin Tae-yong put his body on Jordi Amat, who made a blunder and was given a red card when the Garuda squad was defeated by Iraq in the continuation of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

Playing at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK) on Thursday (6/6/2024) afternoon WIB, STY's foster children actually performed so impressively in the first game. The Indonesian national team was able to create a number of opportunities and forced Iraq to have difficulty implementing the desired playing pattern.

Unfortunately, misery after sorrow began to befall the Garuda squad entering the second half. Justin Hubner did handball in the forbidden box which led to a penalty kick and the opening goal for the Mesopotamian Lions in the 54th minute.

Jordi Amat then fouled a visiting team player, so he was given a red card and forced the Indonesian national team to play with 10 players from the 59th minute.

Meanwhile, goalkeeper Ernando Ari Sutaryadi controlled the ball for too long out of position and failed to anticipate Ali Jasim who moved to grab the ball, before hitting it into the empty net in the 88th minute.

This situation has undoubtedly put the perpetrators of the Indonesian National Team's blunders in the spotlight, including Jordi Amat. It is feared that the mistakes he made were the result of age, which made it difficult for him to compete in high-intensity competitions.
