HOLIDAY NEWS - China is planning a “cunning” strategy ahead of facing the Indonesian National Team. Like war, the Bamboo Curtain Country is planning a way to break Garuda's wings before entering the battlefield. The Garuda squad faced Bahrain and China in the third round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifications in the Asia zone. All matches will take place at home on 10 and 15 October 2024. Shin Tae-yong's squad is in a positive trend after achieving two draws.
Meanwhile, China is not in a good mood after suffering two previous defeats. However, China seems to already have a plan to achieve victory when they host Indonesia.
There are several "cunning" strategies to at least weaken Indonesia's mentality.
1. Issue the Naturalization of Mees Hilgers and Eliano

When facing China later, Indonesia will be able to play Mees Hilgers and Eliano Reijnders because the process of transferring the citizenship of the two players has been completed.
However, media from China, 163.com, took issue with the naturalization process and accused it of not complying with legal procedures in Indonesia.
It was even stated that the Chinese Football Federation would report to the AFC if Hilgers and Eliano played.
2. Remote competition location

In order to mentally and physically weaken the Indonesian national team players, China seems to have deliberately chosen a match venue that is far away. The China vs Indonesian National Team match took place at the Qingdao Stadium.
Located in Qingdao City, China, this area is 660 km from the capital city of Beijing.
Luckily. PSSI moved quickly and carefully by renting a plane so they could fly straight to China after facing Bahrain.
3. High ticket prices

To weaken support for the Indonesian National Team, China is also making every effort to make it difficult or difficult for "reinforcements" in the form of Red and White supporters to come directly to the Qingdao Stadium. The way to do this is by increasing ticket prices.
The cheapest price is 280 Yuan or IDR 614 thousand, a nominal value that is much more expensive than the China vs Thailand match, the cheapest ticket is only 180 yuan or IDR 390 thousand.

HOLIDAY NEWS - China bersiasat “licik” jelang menghadapi Timnas Indonesia. Ibarat peperangan, Negeri Tirai Bambu sedang menyusun cara mematahkan sayap-sayap Garuda sebelum terjun ke medan tempur.
Skuad Garuda menghadapi Bahrain dan China di lanjutan Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 zona Asia ronde ketiga. Semua pertandingan bakal berlangsung di kandang lawan pada 10 dan 15 Oktober 2024.
Skuad Shin Tae-yong sedang dalam tren positif usai meraih dua hasil imbang.
Sedangkan China sedang tidak kondusif usai menelan dua kekalahan sebelumnya.
Namun China seolah sudah punya rencana untuk meraih kemenangan saat menjamu Indonesia.
Ada beberapa siasat “licik” untuk setidaknya melemahkan mental Indonesia.
1. Permasalahkan Naturalisasi Mees Hilgers dan Eliano

Saat menghadapi China nanti, Indonesia sudah bisa memainkan Mees Hilgers dan Eliano Reijnders karena proses perpindahan kewarganegaraan dua pemain itu sudah rampung.
Namun media asal China, 163.com, mempermasalahkan proses naturalisasi itu dan menuduh tidak sesuai prosedur hukum di Indonesia.
Bahkan disebutkan Federasi Sepak Bola China akan melapor ke AFC jika Hilgers dan Eliano dimainkan.
2. Lokasi Bertanding Jauh

Untuk melemahkan mental dan fisik pemain Timnas Indonesia, China seolah sengaja memilih venue pertandingan yang jauh.
Laga China vs Timnas Indonesia berlangsung di Stadion Qingdao.
Terletak di Kota Qingdao, China, wilayah ini berada 660 km dari Ibu Kota Beijing.
Untungnya. PSSI bergerak cepat dan cermat dengan menyewa pesawat agar bisa langsung terbang China usai menghadapi Bahrain.
3. Mahalnya Harga Tiket

Untuk melemahkan dukungan buat Timnas Indonesia, China juga melakukan segala upaya agar “bala bantuan” berupa suporter Merah Putih sulit atau berat datang langsung ke Stadion Qingdao.
Caranya dengan menaikkan harga tiket.
Harga paling murah dibanderol 280 Yuan atau Rp 614 ribu, nominal yang jauh lebih mahal ketimbang laga China vs Thailand tiket termurahnya hanya 180 yuan atau Rp 390 ribu.
