Thecuy.com, Jakarta – Indonesia national team coach, John Herdman, is determined to lead the Garuda Squad to lift the 2026 FIFA ASEAN Cup trophy. He aims to end a long trophy drought. The Merah Putih squad will face Thailand in the final at the Utama Gelora Bung Karno Stadium (SUGBK), Jakarta, on Monday evening WIB. A win over Thailand would end a long wait for the championship title, as the last senior-level success was achieved at the 1991 SEA Games.

Herdman said his players are ready to give their all to become champions in the official FIFA tournament held every four years. “Tomorrow this team will enter SUGBK giving everything for the country,” Herdman said firmly in a press conference ahead of the match attended by the media on Sunday.

“We have the chance to be the first men’s team to lift the trophy for this country,” he continued. According to Herdman, the Indonesian national team players have fought hard to reach this point. The Garuda Squad advanced to the final after topping Group A in the FIFA ASEAN Cup with a dramatic performance.

Indonesia recorded a 2‑0 win over Singapore, a 0‑0 draw with Malaysia, and a 9‑2 rout of Bangladesh to secure a spot in the final match. “This is an opportunity that these players have fought for and they deserve to be here,” Herdman said.

However, Indonesia’s journey to lift the FIFA ASEAN Cup trophy will not be easy. Thailand, one of the strong nations, advanced from Group B with two wins and one loss. Although they have one defeat, Thailand made major rotations in their squad during the last match against the Philippines to keep key players fresh for tomorrow’s final.
