This would be an impossible task for the Indonesians because the Japanese are the most consistent team in Asia at the moment and haven't lost any of their games so far which would make it very difficult for the Indonesians to be able to withstand them. Even if the match is being played in Indonesia wouldn't beat japan. Japan is by far better than Indonesia and highly placed in the FIFA rankings above Indonesia and most of the Asian countries too. I do not see a situation where Indonesia will beat Japan, I don't think they stand a chance except the Japanese are willing to field a youth team.

In the match against Bolivia, Messi wanted to prove he was still alive and playing for Argentina while people think he is not in the good form anymore. We recently saw the news about Messi and his situation in Inter Miami, he injured and even I saw some rumors about Messi they say Messi won't be able to play in all Inter Miami games because of his age and he needs more rest which means he can't have the chance to even play or Argentina in the 2026 World Cup because he will even get older than this.
Messi scored three goals and made two assists against Bolivia and he was the best player in this match.

Argentina, Brazil and Colombia won FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The matches between these three teams were really impressive to watch as all the three teams managed to win by huge margin of goals.Argentina football team faced Bolivia football team. In this match we saw the Argentinian players dominating the game and we were really impressed with the outstanding performance of Lionel Messi in particular. After a long time, we saw Lionel Messi score a hat-trick in an international match. Argentina are still number one among the South American teams in the World Cup qualifiers with a great win in this match.

On the other hand, looking at the performance of the Brazilian team, it seems that they have improved themselves quite well, but their performance was not up to expectations even a few days ago. Brazil beat Peru 4-0 Goals to win two matches in a row.

Yes, of course Japan is the next opponent and of course it will not be easy for Indonesia to beat Japan, because Japan is a country that always takes part in the World Cup and has good abilities. However, I am sure that with Indonesia's current abilities, of course there is potential for Indonesia to beat Japan and the Indonesian national team players will definitely appear confident in the next match against Japan.and I hope Indonesia can play in the world cup.

Indonesia made the wrong strategy to face China. The coach was shocked because their attack was neat and measured when standing in the penalty area, while Indonesia always made a mistake and always miscommunicated with each other. maybe Indonesia players still haven't forgotten their defeat when face bahrain in the other day. Now, after the problem, Bahrain write a letter to FIFA don't want to play in Indonesia because they are afraid their player would be hurt by Indonesia fans. That is illogical and unreasonable

Victories are sometimes deceiving and football is full of surprises, but brazil winning 4x0 really caught our attention. Even though Peru is not a great team, brazil now needs to beat strong teams to consolidate its good phase. At least for me, it is still too early to say whether the team is back on track.

Dorival seems to be finding the most suitable lineup for the starting team, he was right to call up Igor Jesus and Luiz Henrique, while leaving out Vini Jr and Paquetá, but even without these players, it seems that the brazilian team has performed great in this last match, and by all indications, we will soon have Neymar back from recovery!

Yes, in Group C, of ​​course Japan is the strongest and it will certainly be a tough challenge for STY to be able to win the match later, but if Indonesia wins it will certainly make Indonesia have high hopes of taking part in the World Cup.

Although I am a little skeptical about the Indonesia vs Japan match. But being the host should provide more benefits for the Indonesian national team. And playing at the Glora Bung Karno Stadium usually always triggers higher enthusiasm for the Indonesian national team players. I hope Indonesia can at least play with a draw in this match. And of course, if Indonesia is able to win, it will be the most beautiful gift for all supporters of the Indonesian National Team.

The Japanese national team is the only team that has not lost in Group C. So Indonesia really has a tough task when facing the strongest team in Group C.

I'm still wondering how Indonesia lost this game. If they had drawn, I could say that everything is fine because Indonesia doesn't seem to have a good consistent attack, but a loss left me very surprised, because China had a worse attack and worse defense. Indonesia wasted a great opportunity to have achieved a victory that could have greatly improved Indonesia's position. If they had won, they would probably be in second place.

Brazil has done well that from 2 latest matches they can able to collect 6 points and this makes them can improved their position on league standing from 6th place to 4th place and now Brazil can collect 16 points and they have same points with Uruguay and previously we were discuss about the performance of Brazil who decline and from these results i assume they had successfully to bounce back and Brazil chances to qualified to the world cup 2026 is very wide open

Besides Brazil i have been notice about the performance of Chile because they are the former of Copa America and Chile used to recognized as strong team on Conmebol zone but currently they are very weak even on the latest Copa America Chile have to eliminated early since group stage and for world cup qualification stages their chances to qualified to the next round is completeley closed this because Chile position currently at the bottom of league standing and the latest is Chile lost from Colombia with huge scores

The three teams you mentioned have won their respective matches and the margin of victory was huge so we cannot call the competition between these three teams a tough competition at all. If these three teams had fought hard against their opponents in separate matches and won by one goal or two goals, we would have considered this competition as a tough competition. Brazil have won their matches by a big margin whereas Argentina have been playing with their opponents so we'd say the last few matches have been more than enough for these teams. Brazil have recently returned to winning streak so they look more confident now and have a good chance of doing well in the upcoming matches.

On the other hand, looking at the performance of the Brazilian team, it seems that they have improved themselves quite well, but their performance was not up to expectations even a few days ago. Brazil beat Peru 4-0 Goals to win two matches in a row.

I don't think the Indonesia team is that strong. Indonesia team has failed to win in the last 4 matches. Indonesia lost against China in the last match.However, Indonesia lost despite performing well against China. Indonesia players had 76% ball possession. Overall performance of Indonesian players was very good compared to Chinese players. However, Indonesia could not make a comeback in this match due to conceding two goals in the first half.

Indonesia will face Japan in the next match. The chances of Indonesia winning against Japan are very low. The Japanese team is very strong. But the match is Indonesia's home match. Indonesia players at home will be confident. So Japan has to play very carefully if they want to beat Indonesia.

Both brazil and Argentina played impressive matches. Brazil didn't do very well in the first half, but in the second half they controlled the game well, with excellent touches and a stunning volley goal!

Has Dorival finally set a definitive strategy that will make Brazil competitive against big teams in 2026? Time will tell if he is able to maintain his performance in the upcoming matches. With this victory, Brazil made an impressive leap to 4th place.

Neymar could return to play at the end of October, (enable translation)  and if he recovers his fast pace in time for 2026, he could be a great reinforcement for the brazilian national team.

And Messi has already declared that he is close to retiring, with no set date.

Secondly, Argentina has buried Bolivia with 6 - 0 as the final result. They fully controlled the game, played high press, and they're being carried by the GOAT, Messi. He played like what he used to be, and he's very amazing when he's fit. Glad to see him once again set a new record.

Lastly, the Brazilian team played better than at the Copa América. Excluding Vini is the best choice; then play Raphinha. But I'm not convinced by this result. They beat a weak nation. We need a stronger one to test their performance.

But for this match China was very lucky because Indonesia game was very dominant in possession of the ball but made many mistakes, in some conditions Indonesian players often ignored certain positions which created empty spaces and Indonesian players also made mistakes with inappropriate decision making.
Only Indonesian player who I think always performed less than optimally was Witan but he played from the start in the match against China, usually Witan always sat on the bench and if he played it was in the final minutes, I was quite disappointed with Shin Tae-yong decision in using the line-up, it should have been like before which prioritized naturalized players to enter at the beginning.
But everything has happened and Indonesia game is very unsatisfactory, they can't really penetrate China defense which is always full at the back when Indonesia makes an attack attempt, I lost my bet from the defeat with score of 2 - 1.

I think It their own fault that they don't play well and not work hard. I would prefer a team that plays well and wins matches. But these two are not involved.See Indonesia is play well, the reason behind it is that they play work hard and smart, if they don't take interest in the game, it will be their own fault.They should start work hard and playing well from now, then they will start perform well in the match.Indonesia will perform well and they will step towards victory in every match.  But I am worried about China, what performance they will see when they are not capable of it.

yes, in that match China was really able to take advantage of this opportunity well, yes I also saw that STY seemed too optimistic that China would be easily defeated, yes it is true that after Ridho, Arhan, Thom Haye and Marselino played there were indeed better change that were shown Indonesian national team player and honestly, in my opinion, it would be better if Shin Tae-yong played Arhan from the start of the match to the end of the match, namely playing for the full 90 minutes, because I think Arhan has good skills and of course he has the privilege of throwing the ball with his hands and throws. It's always far, of course, I watched Arhan's throw several times in other matches, it always scared the opposing team and this was proven in the match between Indonesia and China because of Arhan's throwing services, finally Indonesia was able to score 1 goal through Haye and fortunately Haye was able to take advantage of the opportunity well.

But yes, hopefully this will all be a lesson for Shin Tae-yong so that in the future he can be more careful and can learn from the experience of Indonesia's match against China. but honestly, I am also impressed with Shin Tae-yong because all this time he has trained the Indonesian national team well and of course up to now he is very good and of course there is still hope and opportunity for Shin Tae-yong to bring the Indonesian national team to get tickets to the 2026 world cup. .

Yes, of course Japan is the next opponent and of course it will not be easy for Indonesia to beat Japan, because Japan is a country that always takes part in the World Cup and has good abilities. However, I am sure that with Indonesia's current abilities, of course there is potential for Indonesia to beat Japan and the Indonesian national team players will definitely appear confident in the next match against Japan.and I hope Indonesia can play in the world cup.
