Two defenders Indonesian national, Elkan Baggott and Fachruddin Aryanto, received “terror” from Shin Tae Yong and the coaching team during the match against Curacao at Gelora Bandung Lautan Api, Saturday (24/9).
In CNNIndonesia.com’s observation of the match venue, Shin, who only drank mineral water twice during the match, repeatedly called Baggott. Defender defending English Premier League club FC Gillingham continues to receive instructions.
When there was an interruption of the attack that required the intervention of the medical team, Baggott would surely have been called by Shin. Assisted by the translator, the 19-year-old player received special instructions from the South Korean coach.

Not only that, once Indonesia’s defense rose during the attack, Baggott’s name continued to be screamed. The 194cm tall player was closely monitored by Shin to appear disciplined and determined against Curacao.
Other players who have been called several times by Shin are Pratama Arhan and Rachmat Irianto. In other words, the players Shin summoned were defensive components. The defensive part of Indonesia is in fact put to the test by Curacao.
Curacao’s play of short passes and measured passes was a real nuisance for the Indonesian defense. Curacao’s two goals are proof that the Indonesian defense can still be exploited. This made Shin sharply correct.
If Baggott is terrified of Shin, Fachruddin often talks to assistant coach Nova Arianto. As a former defender while still actively playing, Nova really looks like Fachruddin’s “mentor” when he delivers a special message.
The Indonesian national team captain was seen nodding when he received Nova’s instructions. At a number of moments Nova gave instructions while showing the game’s formation board. This is also a sign that Fachruddin has landed a special role.
After the match, Fachruddin admitted he received a number of pointers. This cannot be separated from the defensive three-way formation used, where Fachruddin plays on the right position in three parallels whose job is to maintain balance.
“When it comes to being called by the coaches, it’s a question of organizing the game, because we use three defenders. So at the beginning there was still a shortage, so it was solved again,” said the player who defended the team. National Indonesian since 2012.
