SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Ketua Umum PSSI Erick Thohir mengaku bangga atas kemenangan timnas yang berhasil mencetak 1-0 saat melawan Australia pada Kamis (18/4). Prestasi timnas pada ajang Piala Asia U-23 ini kembali membuka peluang lolos ke babak delapan besar.

"Luar biasa. Para pemain benar-benar tunjukkan bagaimana Indonesia yang sesungguhnya. Saya apresiasi dan bangga atas permainan yang tak hanya mampu bangkit seusai kalah di laga pertama, namun mereka malah tampil penuh semangat. Itu yang kita semua mau. Yang Indonesia mau," kata Erick Thohir di Jakarta, dikutip dari PSSI News.

Gol yang dicetak oleh Komang Teguh jelang babak pertama berhasil membawa timnas menempati peringkat dua grup A dengan total mengumpulkan tiga poin. Selanjutnya, timnas masih harus berjuang melawan Yordania pada Minggu (21/4).

"Saya berharap ini jadi modal besar untuk laga penentu melawan Yordania besok. Kerja keras akan menentukan hasil. Meski ada pertandingan lain yang ikut menentukan posisi akhir di grup. Tapi kita semua sepakat, termasuk pecinta timnas, sepanjang seluruh pemain fight hingga peluit akhir, maka kita selalu bangga dan dukung timnas," tambah Erick.

Setelah menghadapi kekalahan sebelumnya saat melawan tuan rumah Qatar, dengan kemenangan ini maka Skuad Garuda menunjukkan tekadnya untuk bermain dengan lebih baik.
