Indonesia must accept the harsh reality after surrendering 2-4 at the Thai headquarters at Rajamangala Stadium on Saturday (11/17/2018). Had superior first, Indonesia then fell.
In that match, the Garuda squad opened the scoring advantage through Zulfiandi's long-range shot in the 29th minute. But goalkeeper Awan Setho then scored four goals by Thailand through Korakod Wiriyadomsiri in the 38th minute, Pansa Hemvibbon (45 + 3 '), Adisak Kraisorn (65'), and Pokklawa Anan (74 '). Indonesia then only managed to add one more goal through Fachrudin Aryanto's header one minute before the match ended.
The defeat of the White Elephant team made Indonesia's chances of qualifying for the semifinals quite thin. Indonesia's fate is very dependent on the results of other matches.
The Red and White Team are now ranked fourth in Group B with three points from three matches and have a goal difference of minus one. Indonesia's position is below Thailand (6 points), Philippines (6 points), and Singapore (3 points). But all three countries only played two matches in Group B.
This condition makes Indonesia obliged to win in the last group match when facing the Philippines on Sunday (25/11) with a big difference in the number of goals. But the victory over The Azkals has also not fully guaranteed Indonesia to advance to the semifinals.
With a maximum of six points that can be achieved by Indonesia, Hansamu Yama et al still have to depend on the results of other countries. Indonesia now hopes that the three teams above them, Thailand, the Philippines and Singapore lost the rest of their two matches.
But Indonesia's hopes of qualifying for the semifinals could disappear faster if Thailand and the Philippines play a draw when the two countries meet at Paanad Stadium on Wednesday (21/11). The draw will make Thailand and the Philippines collect seven points, a number that Indonesia and Singapore will not pursue.
