Patrick Kluivert Hints at Tactical Change for Indonesia

Quoting Bolasport.com, coach Patrick Kluivert hinted at a tactical change for Indonesia’s national team following their 1-0 win over China in the 2026 Asian World Cup Qualifiers at Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium.

Naturalized striker, Ole Romeny, was the hero of the victory — scoring the only goal from the penalty spot in the 45th minute.

This win completes Indonesia’s impressive home record with three consecutive wins:

• Defeating Saudi Arabia 2-0
• Overcoming Bahrain 1-0
• Conquering China 1-0

In the match against China, Kluivert once again implemented a 3-4-2-1 formation — a system that relies on wing attacks supported by two attacking midfielders behind a lone striker.

The Dutch tactician acknowledged that the formation provided stability and effectiveness for the team — but did not rule out the possibility of making adjustments in the future.
