The Indonesian national soccer team ( Indonesian : Tim nasional sepak bola Indonesia) represents the Southeast Asian Republic of Indonesia in soccer. In 1938 the team took part as the Dutch East Indies for the first and only time in the soccer world championship. The team is subordinate to the Football Association of Indonesia (Persatuan Sepakbola Seluruh Indonesia, PSSI) and is one of the stronger teams in Southeast Asia .

Home of the Merah Putih (in German: Red and White) is the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium, completed in 1962 in the capital Jakarta.

history

At the Football World Cup in 1938 , the Dutch colony at that time was represented under the name of the Dutch East Indies , but in the first round they could not hold their own against the eventual vice world champions Hungary and were eliminated after the 0: 6 against them.

It was not until 1958 - 20 years later - that the now independent Indonesia took part in the World Cup again. In the first round, Indonesia prevailed against the Chinese team , but in the second round they refused to play against Israel . Again, Indonesia did not play in the qualifiers for 16 years. In the qualifications for the World Championships 1974 to 2014, the team participated continuously, but could not qualify for the respective finals. The team was excluded from qualifying for the 2018 World Cup because the Indonesian government had repeatedly interfered in association matters.

After several attempts, Indonesia qualified for the Asian Cup for the first time in 1996. At the finals in the United Arab Emirates, however, the Indonesians were eliminated with one point (a 2-2 win against Kuwait ), just like four years later in Lebanon in the preliminary round. At the 2004 Asian Cup, the first win over Qatar was 2-1, but it was not enough to advance. In 2007, Indonesia was one of the hosts for the finals, the hosts starting the tournament with their second win, a 2-1 victory over Bahrain . In the second game, the Indonesians managed to keep a 1-1 draw against the highly-favored Saudis until the 92nd minute, before a goal in the last few seconds meant defeat. They also played well in the third game against South Korea and only lost 1-0.

At the regional level, Indonesia was able to reach the final of the ASEAN soccer championship three times (2000, 2002 and 2004), but it was not enough to win.

Participation in the Olympic Games

  • 1956 in Melbourne - 2nd round (defeat in the replay against the later Olympic champion USSR)
  • 1960 in Rome - not qualified
  • 1964 in Tokyo - No participation
  • 1968 Mexico City - did not qualify

  • 1976 in Montreal - did not qualify
  • 1980 in Moscow - not qualified
  • 1984 Los Angeles - did not qualify
  • 1988 in Seoul - did not qualify

After 1988, the senior national team no longer took part in qualifying for the Olympic Games. An Indonesian Olympic team has not yet qualified.

Participation in the world championships

Indonesia has not yet qualified for a World Cup. In 1938, the Dutch East Indies took part in the World Cup finals, but did not have to qualify because the qualifying opponents Japan and USA did not appear or withdrew. In France, the Dutch East Indies only played one game, making them the only team to have only played one game at the World Cup finals. In the all-time table of World Cup finalists, Indonesia ranks 71st and is one of the five teams without scoring.
