Coach Patrick Kluivert is determined to lead Indonesia’s National Team in ending their 44-year winless streak against Australia, as reported by Bolasport.com.

The Garuda Squad will face Australia in the seventh match of Group C World Cup 2026 Qualifiers Asian Zone at Sydney Football Stadium — a crucial test for the team.

Indonesia enters the match with positive momentum after securing a victory against Saudi Arabia in their previous game. Under Kluivert’s leadership, the team has been strengthened with four new naturalized players:

  • Emil Audero (goalkeeper)
  • Dean James (defender)
  • Joey Pelupessy (midfielder)
  • Ole Romeny (striker)

Despite the reinforcement from new players, the match against Australia remains a major challenge that Indonesia must face.
