This step demonstrates the determination of the Indonesian Football Federation towards the goal of winning tickets to attend the 2024 Paris Olympics. Coach Shin Tae Yong will have the strongest force when leading U23 Indonesia to face the hometown team at 00:30 on the morning of September 26. 4.
Previously, Nathan Tjoe-A-On was expected to return from Qatar to the Netherlands to serve the host club after the 2024 U23 Asian group stage ended. However, the Indonesian Football Federation negotiated to retain this player and Heerenveen agreed.
Information about Nathan Tjoe-A-On staying at U23 Indonesia was announced on the Indonesian Football Federation homepage right before coach Shin Tae Yong entered the press conference before the match against U23 Korea.
Nathan Tjoe-A-On is a player who was recently naturalized in Indonesia last March and quickly became a favorite of coach Shin Tae Yong. This defender is currently playing for Heerenveen on loan from Swansea.
At the 2024 U23 Asian Finals, Nathan Tjoe-A-On was the tactical highlight of U23 Indonesia when coach Shin Tae Yong pulled him up to play central midfielder instead of left wing back. Nathan Tjoe-A-On quickly adapted to his new position, making a major contribution to helping U23 Indonesia win U23 Australia 1-0 and U23 Jordan 4-1 to advance to the quarterfinals.
