SKOR.id - Striker Timnas Indonesia, Rafael Struick, belum menyerah mengejar impian lolos ke Piala Dunia 2026.

Meskipun saat ini skuad Garuda ada di dasar klasemen Grup C putaran ketiga Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 zona Asia, Rafa percaya mereka masih punya kesempatan.

Seperti diketahui, Timnas Indonesia menelan kekalahan telak dari Jepang pada matchday kelima yang berlangsung di Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno (SUGBK), Jakarta, Jumat (15/11/2024) malam.

Walau sempat tampil menjanjikan pada awal laga, Rafael Struick dan kawan-kawan pada akhirnya dipaksa menyerah dengan skor 0-4.

Bunuh diri Justin Hubner, serta gol-gol Takumi Minamino, Hidemasa Morita, dan Yukinari Sugawara menjadi mimpi buruk tim asuhan Shin Tae-yong.

Dengan demikian, skuad Garuda pun terpuruk sebagai juru kunci. Mereka belum pernah menang, hanya mengoleksi tiga hasil imbang dan dua kekalahan.

Tapi, Rafael Struick tetap optimistis. Pasalnya, persaingan di Grup C putaran ketiga Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 zona Asia masih sengit.

Mengenyampingkan Jepang yang nyaman duduk di puncak dengan 13 poin, lima tim lain memiliki selisih yang tak terlalu jauh.

Australia, Arab Saudi, dan Cina saat ini meraup 6 poin di peringkat kedua hingga keempat, Bahrain 5 poin di tangga kelima, sedangkan Indonesia 3 poin.

Jika targetnya minimal finis di posisi ketiga atau keempat, peluang Timnas Indonesia memang belum tertutup.

"Tentu saja kalah tak menyenangkan. Tapi seperti kita tahu, masih ada lima pertandingan untuk diperjuangkan," ujar Rafael Struick saat ditemui wartawan usai laga versus Jepang.

"Grup ini sengit. Jepang memang dominan di peringkat pertama, tapi urutan kedua ke bawah sangat ketat," tambahnya.

Lebih lanjut, striker yang kini memperkuat Brisbane Roar di Australia itu coba mengambil sisi positif dari kekalahan lawan Jepang. Apa yang mereka alami bisa dijadikan pelajaran untuk tampil lebih baik di laga-laga berikutnya.

"Ya, mereka tim kuat dengan banyak pemain kelas dunia. Kami bisa ambil pelajaran dari bagaimana mereka bekerja di lapangan, dan terapkan ke laga berikutnya," kata Rafa.

Oleh karena itu, duel terdekat melawan Arab Saudi di SUGBK, Selasa (19/11/2024), menjadi sangat vital. Mereka harus bisa mencuri poin agar tak makin tertinggal dalam persaingan.
