Aziz Behich wary of Indonesia’s strength ahead of qualifier

Aziz Behich, Australia’s National Team defender, shares his perspective ahead of the 2026 World Cup qualifier match against Indonesia.

A fiercely contested match is expected — with Australia looking to maintain second place in Group C, while Indonesia aims to secure at least one point on the Socceroos’ home ground.

The last meeting in Jakarta ended in a goalless draw — as the Garuda squad put up a resilient defensive display.

Coach Patrick Kluivert is now preparing the Indonesian National Team with an optimized player composition to repeat that positive result.

Behich acknowledges that playing in Indonesia presents unique challenges — however, he emphasizes that every international match always carries a high level of difficulty.
