'FIFA MATCHDAY NATIONAL TEAM' Indonesia VS Bangladesh to be Exclusively Aired on INDOSIAR

Kapanlagi.com - After consistently broadcasting various exciting matches from Indonesian football competitions such as Liga 1, Liga 2, Piala Presiden, INDOSIAR has also been officially appointed as the official broadcaster of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. However, before that, INDOSIAR will also broadcast a prestigious match between the Indonesian national team against Bangladesh in a friendly match before the 2023 Asia Cup qualifiers in Kuwait.

The friendly match between Squad Garuda against The Bengal Tigers, the nickname of the Bangladesh national team, will take place at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium, Bandung on Wednesday (1/6) at 8:00 PM WIB. The match titled 'FIFA MATCHDAY NATIONAL TEAM' is exclusively available and broadcast live on INDOSIAR and Vidio.

There is something different about this Indonesia vs Bangladesh friendly match, because this match can be watched live by the audience present at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium Bandung while still following health protocols. In addition to treating the longing of Indonesian football lovers to be able to support their favorite national team directly, this will provide a morale boost for the Indonesian football heroes on the field when they compete.

1. Airing Prime Time on Holidays

Harsiwi Achmad, SCM's Programming Director, revealed that INDOSIAR is very enthusiastic and proud to be part of Indonesia's football journey to exist internationally by broadcasting a series of prestigious matches, one of which is the FIFA MATCHDAY NATIONAL TEAM.

After previously failing to meet in a friendly match in early 2022, the Bangladesh National Team once again invited the Indonesian National Team to compete. Egy Maulana and his colleagues under the guidance of Shin Tae Yong will certainly make the most of this FIFA MATCHDAY NATIONAL TEAM moment.

In addition to improving their FIFA ranking, by involving senior national team players from the Garuda Squad whose composition is more or less the same as when they participated in the 2021 Sea Games, the Indonesian National Team will also mature their strategy to face the 2023 Asian Cup qualifying matches. In the 2023 Asian Cup qualifying round, the Garuda squad will be grouped in Group A with Jordan, Kuwait, and Nepal, where all three national teams have strengths that cannot be underestimated.

Although Bangladesh is ranked below Indonesia, their achievements in football competitions, especially in Asia, cannot be underestimated. In addition to having won the South Asian Football Tournament (SAFF), under the guidance of György Kottán, The Bengal Tigers have also successfully won gold medals at the South Asian Games twice and have qualified for the Asian Cup final rounds. It is no wonder that football is still the second most popular sport in Bangladesh.
