Jakarta –
Mohammad Kanu had a long sack at the U-19 Indonesia National Team Training Center in Croatia. Now, he started to steal the attention of coach Shin Tae-yong.
Kanu just played his first match with the U-19 national team in the last trial match in September against Dinamo Zagreb, Monday (28/9/2020). An ankle injury made Kanu have to wait patiently for his debut with the U-19 national team in Croatia.
He hasn’t given much impression on the match against Dinamo Zagreb because he only started in the second half. Even so, Shin Tae-yong began to routinely give opportunities to Kanu
Slowly he began to show his quality in the following matches, both as a starter and as a substitute in the match against NK Dugopolje and in the two matches against North Macedonia.
Most recently, he started twice when the U-19 national team met North Macedonia twice. Kanu performed very well in his first chance as a starter against Macedonia, so he got the same opportunity again at the second meeting of the U-19 national team against Macedonia.
“Alhamdulillah, I received a call for the U-19 National Team training camp in Cikarang at the beginning of 2020. I am grateful to have always been called by coach Shin Tae-yong during the U-19 National Team TC in Thailand, Jakarta and currently in Croatia,” said Kanu , quoted from the PSSI page.
“I am determined and have a dream of breaking into the U-19 national team in the future. I want to play in the U-19 Asian Cup and of course the U-20 World Cup next year,” he added.
The angkle injury he suffered did not discourage Kanu. Thanks to his strong determination, he managed to show his ability which is now getting the attention of Shin Tae-yong.
His recent good performance with the U-19 national team has not made Kanu satisfied. He wants to continue to develop and feels he can get him under the command of the South Korean coaches and some local coaches in the U-19 national team.
“At that time I only focused on how to recover quickly and be able to train with the team again. And Alhamdulillah I was able to train normally and played three trial matches against Dinamo Zagreb, NK Dugopolje and North Macedonia,” said the player Muba Babel United.
“We have to always be enthusiastic, work hard, be disciplined and focused. Coach Shin Tae-yong is excellent in providing training materials. And he is very disciplined,” he concluded.
