Nova Arianto’s squad looked nervous in the first 10 minutes.Poor ball control and wrong passes from the players meant that the attack did not run optimally.
However, Indonesia managed to break the deadlock in the 12th minute.It was Zahaby Gholy who successfully etched his name on the scoreboard.
Starting from Evandra Florasta’s cross from the right side.Zambia goalkeeper Christo Ctambala tried to cut the ball but the wild ball was caught by Zahaby Gholy to give Indonesia a 1-0 lead.
Behind by one goal forced Zambia to play more aggressively.A number of attacks carried out by Jonathan Kalimina et al are often troublesome but can still be suppressed by Indonesian children.
After the 30th minute, Indonesia tried to play more calmly in building attacks.However, the problem of pass accuracy again made the attacks aimless.
Indonesia’s back line was finally punished in the 35th minute.Abel Nyirongo managed to equalize 1-1 after successfully grabbing a low cross in front of goal.
Two minutes later, Abel Nyirongo again became a disaster for Indonesia.Dafa Algasemi couldn’t anticipate Abel Nyirongo’s shot from outside the penalty box.Zambia leads 2-1.
Lukonde Mwale put Zambia 3-1 ahead in the 42nd minute.Dafa Algasemi was unable to block Mwale’s close-range shot using a low cross.
Zambia’s 3-1 lead over Indonesia lasted until the end of the first half.It is hoped that the Garuda Muda troops will recover in the second half.
