The Indonesian U-23 national team is still not safe to qualify for the 2026 U-23 Asian Cup. Gerald Vanenburg’s team has played two matches in Group J the U-23 Asian Cup qualification 2026.
In the first match, Indonesia failed to win after being held to Laos 0-0. Then in the second match, Indonesia managed to improve the appearance by winning a 5-0 victory over Macau at the Gelora Delta Sidoarjo Stadium on Saturday (6/9).
The victory has not made Indonesia safe to qualify for the 2026 U-23 Asian Cup. Indonesia is now ranked second in Group J with a score of four points from the two matches that are undertaken.
Indonesia is under South Korea who successfully packed six points after winning over Macau and Laos.
However, Indonesia still has a chance to qualify for the 2026 U-23 Asian Cup. The Indonesian U-23 national team is certain to only qualify for the 2026 U-23 Asian Cup through the group championship status because it is no longer possible to qualify through the best runner up route.
In the 2026 U-23 Asian Cup qualification, there are 15 teams that will qualify for the finals. The details, 11 of the best group champion teams and four runners ups.
After 11 groups that finished their second match on Saturday (6/9), the Indonesian U-23 national team certainly would not be able to qualify through the best runner up route. This is based on the best runner -up standings today.
From the runner up standings, there are four teams that have collected six points. The four teams are China (Group D), Iran (I), Turkmenistan (A), and Yemen (C).
The four teams are not certain to be runners up. But it is certain that at least four runners up from the four groups will end the qualifying round with a value of six points.
This condition made the Indonesian U-23 national team unable to be possible to penetrate the top four of the runner up standings. Garuda Muda currently collects four points from the two matches played.
If you become a runner -up group J, Indonesia’s maximum point is five points if you play a draw against South Korea in the last match. The number of points is clearly not able to match the points of other teams.
Because of that the only way for the Indonesian U-23 national team to qualify for the U-23 Asian Cup is to defeat South Korea. With an additional three points and collecting seven points, Indonesia will win Group J and qualify for the U-23 Asian Cup as group winners.
In contrast to Indonesia, Korea still has a chance to qualify through the best runner up route when losing Indonesia. The reason, Korea has six points in hand and has a fairly convincing goal difference, which is 12-0.
