Nova Arianto ready to rotate Indonesia U-17 squad against Afghanistan

Coach Nova Arianto will rotate his squad when Indonesia U-17 national team faces Afghanistan in their final Group C match of the 2025 AFC U-17 Asian Cup at Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Stadium.

With qualification to the next round already secured — the coach has an opportunity to give playing time to reserve players.

Drawing from experience at the ASEAN Cup U-17 earlier this year — Nova Arianto has proven his ability to manage player rotation effectively.

“All players will get their chance to play, especially those who have spent more time on the bench. I hope they can show consistent performance like the main team,” said Nova Arianto.
