SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Kiper Persebaya Surabaya, Ernando Ari Sutaryadi, percaya diri bahwa peluang Timnas Indonesia di Piala AFF 2024 sangat terbuka. Ia menilai pemilihan pemain oleh pelatih Shin Tae-yong, yang sebagian besar berasal dari Liga 1 Indonesia, memberikan kekuatan tambahan bagi skuad Garuda.

"Ya bisa, sekarang coach Shin memakai pemain muda-muda ya. Jadi mereka-mereka juga bermain di Liga 1, jadi enggak usah khawatir," ucap Ernando kepada ANTARA di Stadion Gelora 10 November Surabaya, Senin (09/12). 

Meski didominasi pemain muda, Ernando menilai kehadiran pemain berpengalaman seperti Asnawi Mangkualam, Pratama Arhan, Marselino Ferdinan, dan Rafael Struick menjadi keunggulan tersendiri. Ia percaya kombinasi antara pemain muda dan senior dapat membuat Indonesia tampil kompetitif.

"Saya percaya juga pada teman-teman, mereka juga ada pemain-pemain senior juga. Jadi ya tidak usah takut, saya yakin juga pasti bisa mereka," ungkap penjaga gawang berusia 22 tahun tersebut.

Namun, Ernando juga mengingatkan bahwa tim-tim lawan, seperti Kamboja dan Malaysia, patut diwaspadai. Menurutnya, banyak negara lain kini juga mengandalkan pemain naturalisasi, membuat persaingan semakin menarik.

"Ya semua mereka mengikuti seperti Indonesia, juga banyak naturalisasi. Saya lihat Kamboja, Malaysia juga, kalau Malaysia sudah lama, Kamboja banyak juga. Mungkin ya lebih seru lah sekarang ini," kata Ernando. 

Ernano tetap yakin dengan pengalaman pemain muda yang bermain di Liga 1 cukup untuk menghadapi tantangan di Piala AFF 2024.
