Bola.com, Jakarta – It’s like Indonesia has never had a shortage of footballers in the left back position. Before the Pratama Arhan era, there were many names that had become red and white mainstays. One of them is Erol FX Iba. The player from Papua is a mainstay Indonesian National team in the 2001 SEA Games and senior level tournaments in 2006-2009.
The man who is now pursuing a career as a coach recounted his career journey on the Sportcast 77 youtube channel a few days ago. Apparently, Erol had a smooth career path. Starting from the Papuan Education and Training Center, then to Ragunan and was immediately withdrawn by Semen Padang in 1998.
“I have targets step by step. Take practice first Semen Padang. Places to live and eat are available, all that remains is to focus on football. The initial target was to enter Semen Padang. Then try to get into the team that was taken to play away. I want to see other cities too. Get on a plane, sleep in a hotel, eat for free and get pocket money,” he recalls.
After login line-up, he was waiting for the moment to get a chance to debut. At that time, Erol was still the third choice after Herman Pulalo. “After entering line-up and go away, my target is to be able to play 5 minutes,” he continued.
