JAKARTA, KOMPAS – The Indonesian national soccer team failed to make a great start in the 2022 FIFA World Cup Asian qualifiers, when it lost to Malaysia 2-3 in its opening qualifier match on Thursday (5/9/2019) at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta. Malaysia has forced the Garuda team to face reality.

Indonesia also failed to be a gracious host during the match, due to the unsportsmanlike conduct of some supporters.
