SKOR.id - Pelatih Timnas Indonesia, Shin Tae-yong, tak ingin para pemainnya terbebani saat berlaga di markas Arab Saudi.

Seperti diketahui, Timnas Indonesia akan melakoni laga pembuka Grup C putaran ketiga Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 zona Asia kontra The Green Falcons - julukan Timnas Arab Saudi.

Pertandingan tersebut dihelat di Stadion King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah, pada Kamis (5/92024) atau Jumat dini hari WIB.

Mengingat ini adalah penampilan perdana skuad Garuda di putaran ketiga Kualifikasi Piala Dunia, banyak yang meyakini Rizky Ridho dan kawan-kawan bakal gugup.

Apalagi lawan mereka adalah langganan Piala Dunia, dan memiliki ranking superior di tabel FIFA.

Namun, Shin Tae-yong justru mengatakan sebaliknya. Juru taktik asal Korea Selatan itu percaya bahwa pasukannya akan menikmati setiap momen di lapangan.

"Sejujurnya, lolos dari putaran kedua sudah merupakan pencapaian hebat bagi Timnas Indonesia. Dan, sekarang, kami ada di putaran ketiga, satu lagi sejarah dan momen besar. Alih-alih tertekan, saya hanya ingin para pemain menikmati situasinya dan menampilkan performa yang bagus," kata Shin Tae-yong dalam konferensi pers jelang laga, Rabu (4/9/2024).

"Secara pribadi, saya juga punya kenangan bagus sebagai pelatih di Piala Dunia. Waktu itu (bersama Timnas Korea Selatan) menang lawan Jerman. Jadi, saya tidak tertekan. Kami akan terus mempersiapkan diri dengan baik," tambahnya.

Meski begitu, Shin Tae-yong mengakui bahwa peluang Timnas Indonesia untuk lolos langsung ke Piala Dunia 2026 memang berat.

Jadi, dia tak mau memasang target tinggi di fase ini, cukup membidik peringkat ketiga atau keempat di Grup C agar bisa bertarung lagi babak berikutnya.

"Saya setuju bahwa grup ini merupakan yang tersulit di putaran ketiga, tapi kami takkan menyerah. Faktanya, kami tidak membidik peringkat pertama atau kedua, tapi posisi ketiga atau keempat untuk masuk ke play-off. Itu target pribadi saya," ujarnya.

Sebagai informasi, Timnas Indonesia tergabung di Grup C putaran ketiga Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 zona Asia bersama Jepang, Australia, Arab Saudi, Bahrain, dan Cina.

Setelah menghadapi Arab Saudi, mereka akan menjamu Australia di Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno (SUGBK), Jakarta, pada Selasa (10/9/2024) mendatang.
