Indonesia’s World Cup 2026 fate depends on Japan and China results

According to Bolasport.com, Indonesia National Team‘s chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup remain alive — though dependent on the outcomes of Japan versus Saudi Arabia and China against Australia matches.

Both matches will take place earlier today — Japan hosts Saudi Arabia at Saitama Stadium 2002 at 17:35 WIB, while China faces Australia at Hangzhou Sports Park Stadium at 18:00 WIB.

Indonesia National Team currently with 6 points will face Bahrain at Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium at 20:45 WIB — chasing Australia in second place with 10 points and Saudi Arabia in third position with 9 points.

Victories for Japan and China would open greater opportunities for the Garuda squad — not only to secure a win against Bahrain but also to score as many goals as possible to improve their position in Group C standings.
