Indonesia U-17 National Team firmly on top of Group G standings after defeating Kuwait

Indonesia National Team U-17 managed to lead the rankings in Group G of the 2025 U-17 Asian Cup Qualifiers after defeating Kuwait U-17 with a score of 1-0 on Wednesday afternoon (23/10/2024) WIB. Mathew Baker’s only goal in the 8th minute confirmed Garuda Asia’s victory in this first game. As a result of this result, Indonesia earned the full three points and sits comfortably at the top of the standings.

The match held at the Al Shabab SC stadium, Mishref, showed a good performance from the Nova Arianto team. With a 4-3-3 formation, the Indonesian U-17 National Team seemed to be in control and were able to maintain their lead until the end of the game, even though Kuwait resisted. This victory is a valuable capital for the Indonesian U-17 National Team to face the next two matches in Group G.

Currently, Australia and the Northern Mariana Islands have not yet started their match, which will be held a few hours after the Indonesia vs. Kuwait match ends. The results of this match will determine a shift in the Group G standings, but for now, Indonesia is firmly at the top with three points and a superior goal difference. The Indonesian U-17 national team will continue their struggle in the next match against the Northern Mariana Islands next Saturday.
