SKOR.id - Pelatih Timnas Malaysia, Kim Pan-gon, optimistis pasukannya mampu membuat kejutan pada laga pembuka Piala Asia 2023.

Timnas Malaysia akan mengawali perjuangan mereka di turnamen empat tahunan itu dengan menghadapi Yordania di Stadion Al Janoub, Senin (15/1/2024).

Meski sang lawan memiliki ranking FIFA superior (87 berbanding 130), Kim Pan-gon yakin bisa mencuri poin, bahkan menang.

Dia menyebut performa apik Harimau Malaya selama setahun terakhir sebagai modal positif.

Ya, sejak Maret 2023, Timnas Malaysia sudah melakoni 11 pertandingan internasional, memenangi delapan di antaranya. Mereka cuma sekali kalah, dan dua sisanya imbang.

Terakhir, 8 Januari lalu, Arif Aiman Hanapi dan kawan-kawan bermain sama kuat 2-2 versus Suriah dalam sebuah uji coba di Doha, Qatar.

Itu dinilai sebagai simulasi yang tepat jelang menantang Yordania di laga pembuka Grup E.

"Kami sangat siap untuk laga besok (hari ini). Kami sudah melakukan persiapan di Kuala Lumpur juga di Doha, jadi saya rasa kami bisa menampilkan yang terbaik," ujar Kim Pan-gon, dikutip dari Berita Harian.

"Performa bagus sejak Maret tahun lalu memberikan kepercayaan diri kepada pemain untuk melawan Yordania. Kami ingin melanjutkan momentum tersebut di turnamen ini dan memberi kebahagiaan buat rakyat Malaysia," tambahnya.

Sama seperti Indonesia, Timnas Malaysia juga memasang target minimal lolos ke babak 16 besar Piala Asia 2023. Oleh karena itu, laga melawan Yordania, dan selanjutnya kontra Bahrain, sangat menentukan.

Sebab, pada pertandingan pamungkas, Harimau Malaya bakal bertemu favorit juara, Korea Selatan. Sangat tipis peluang mereka mencuri poin.

"Targetnya adalah melaju ke babak 16 besar, dan jika berhasil, baru kami pikirkan langkah selanjutnya. Saat ini, kami harus fokus memikirkan cara mencapai babak 16 besar," juru taktik asal Korea Selatan itu melanjutkan.

Kim Pan-gon mengungkapkan skuadnya tak punya masalah berarti. Memang ada beberapa pemain yang kurang fit, tapi itu tak mengganggu persiapan melawan Yordania.

"Saya tahu Yordania adalah tim kuat, dengan fisik tangguh dan kualitas individu. Namun, kami punya strategi, dan kami yakin bisa menghentikan mereka," tegas Kim Pan-gon.

Timnas Malaysia sebelumnya sudah tiga kali berpartisipasi di Piala Asia (1976, 1980, 2007). Namun, mereka selalu karam di fase grup.
