Shin Tae-yong, Indonesia U23 national team coach.

Coach Shin Tae-yong, who leads the Indonesian U23 national team, still expressed his disappointment with the referee's decision even after returning to Indonesia after the Guinea match.

Shin Tae-yong lost 0-1 in the 2024 Paris Olympic men's soccer single-game playoff (PO) against Guinea held in Clairefontaine, France on the 9th (Korean time). 안전놀이터

Under new coach Indonesia, Indonesia ranked fourth in the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U23 Asian Cup, increasing its chances of advancing to the Olympics for the first time in 68 years, but unfortunately failed to overcome the final hurdle.

It was a game that inevitably left more regrets for Indonesia. In the match against Guinea, Indonesia conceded two penalty kicks due to somewhat ambiguous decisions, and the goal conceded from the first penalty kick ended up being the winning goal. After the second penalty kick was announced, Coach Shin, who had been protesting the decision, was sent off and even lost the motivation to chase.

Coach Shin, who was unable to attend the official press conference due to being sent off at the time, said in an interview with local media ‘Bola' after returning to Indonesia on the 12th, “It seems like an excuse to keep talking about refereeing, but I can't help but do it.” The decision was the worst in my 45 years of football. “It ruined the efforts of Indonesian players,” he said, unable to hide his disappointment.

At the same time, he added meaning to the growth, saying, “Although we did not make it to the Olympics for the first time in 68 years, Indonesian soccer almost qualified for the Olympics by standing shoulder to shoulder with Japan, Uzbekistan, and Iraq (which qualified for the finals).” 슬롯사이트

Despite failing to advance to the Olympic finals, coach Shin Tae-yong is receiving active support and encouragement from the Indonesian soccer community and fans. When Shin Tae-yong returned to Korea, hundreds of Indonesian fans visited Soekarno Hatta Airport in Jakarta, and Indonesian Football Association officials comforted coach Shin Tae-yong with hugs. Nova Arianto, coach of the Indonesian U23 national team, said on his SNS, “I hope coach Shin Tae-yong doesn’t cry. “Coach Shin is already our hero, and thanks to him, Indonesian soccer has reached a high level,” he wrote. Meanwhile, Coach Shin, who is also the coach of the Indonesian A national team, prepares for the 2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup Asia second round qualifiers against Iraq on June 6th and the Philippines on the 11th. 토토사이트 추천
