The Birth of the Indonesian U-23 National Team Goal Machine at the SEA Games

Jakarta, CNN Indonesia

4-0 win Indonesian National Team U-23 against the Philippines in SEA Games 2021 (SEA Games 2022), Friday (13/5), marks the birth of a goal machine figure.

The figure in question is Muhammad Ridwan. The Persik Kediri striker contributed one goal in the victory at the Viet Tri Stadium, Phu Tho, Vietnam.

It’s a bit too early to call Ridwan a goal machine. But the instincts and instincts of the 21-year-old player show his potential as a promising striker.

Appeared only 45 minutes, Ridwan had two opportunities. One goal came from Egy Maulana’s pass, and another opportunity flew over the Vietnam crossbar.

Although the second chance did not bear a goal, the 184 centimeter tall player showed his ego as a striker. When there is an opportunity Ridwan tries to finish it.

Of the 20 players in the 2021 SEA Games squad, only Ridwan is a pure striker. The other three names, Egy Maulana, Ronaldo Kwateh, and Irfan Jauhari, are more inclined as wingers.

Given that Ridwan has just made his official debut in this match, Ridwan can become a weapon in the next match, including in the semifinals if he is able to beat Myanmar on Sunday (15/5).

Shin’s decision to choose Marselino Ferdinand to be the penalty kick executioner was also positive. The success of the Persebaya player’s goal made his psychology lift.

Marselino is a player that Shin always trusted, even though he was a substitute. As the youngest player in the Garuda Muda squad, this Jakarta-born child needs capital.

One goal with the U-23 national team is the capital to increase self-confidence. This is his first goal in an official event. That’s why he celebrated the goal with glee.
