Chtr 70.


3 Days later,


The match between Indonesia and Togo will also be held. Both teams have also entered and are already preparing to kick off.


In this match, Sean is not relegated, the coach prefers to play another who has not been part to play.


Sean of course understands and does not mind, he just hopes that Indonesia can win just to qualify for the next round.


If the Indonesian team will still qualify with 7 points, but for security it is better to win than draw.


Sean sat on the bench with the other players, "You think the coach wants us to win or draw?" Ask Witan.


The same Witan as Sean is not in play. The coach plays Egy and Todd Rivaldo as his winger and Rafli as his centre-forward.


"I don't know, I just want to win. Even if our draw passes, we better win."


"But I think in this game it will be difficult." Reveal Sean.


"Yes I know and understand your thoughts." Sahut Witan's.


Sean and Witan continued to chat slowly while looking at the match that had officially started.


The game started with a kick off from the Togo team. Indonesia also directly presses tightly against Togo players.


Whether it's a player who has the ball or who is on the move looking for space.


Sean saw this nod he was happy because the player was carrying out the direct instruction of the coach.


Where the coach gives instructions by doing tight pressing at the beginning, he says do not be afraid to stamina tired quickly.


Provided it can prevent the opposing team from holding the ball well and not making the attack is enough.


Especially if by pressing continues to be finally mentioned and become an opportunity for us it is better.


The match on the field continued as well. Sean watched carefully. He must learn the opponent's movements and habits.


That is so that later if Sean plays, Sean can easily destroy the opponent's defense.


Meanwhile, in Indonesia.


Sean's family members were all watching together at Sean's house.


"It looks like our son's not playing anymore." Reveal Father.


"What's wrong, there are other players who haven't played as well." Reveal mother.


"Yahh, no problem. As long as it wins, so that Sean and Indonesia can advance to the next round."


"Ohiyaa, has Sean told you which club he's going to go to?" Ask father.


"Not yet, it looks like Silva is working on that."


"Last Sean just said that he had to be patient and try hard to play well in this Toulon tournament so that he gets a big and good team."


"I see, usually in a big tournament like this there will be scouts from club clubs whether it's small or big."


"Hopefully Sean is in the lyrics of one of them."


"I don't care if I'm still in a small club, as long as Sean can grow and learn to be better." Sean's father judged.


"Yeah. You should have talked to her yourself that way."


"No!" Sean's father was straight out.


Sean's mother just smiled. She knew the nature of her stubborn husband, but it was also for Sean's good. He doesn't want Sean to be too spoiled.


His father and mother Sean continued to watch the game, while his sister Sean was told to study by his mother.


Meanwhile, at Sean's friend's desk. Alby keeps watching the game even though Sean's not playing.


Unlike Gilang and the others, they were indifferent and preferred to chat despite occasionally glancing at the television.


Gilang and the others just wanted to watch if there was Sean.


"Woi, watch."


"Here you are." Alby sighed because he could not do anything about the behavior of this friend of his.


"Indonesia must win this match." Commentator on television.


"We must win so that our nation's name is more fragrant and we can be proud of it."


"Can't draw, we have to draw."


"You think, if Indonesia passes later, what opponents will Indonesia face?" Ask the only commentator who still sees the pace of the match but whose chatter has gone where.


"In group A Mexico and England have the same points. Now they are also competing to determine who escaped, but if the draw could be both qualify."


"One as the group champion, one as the best runner up because it has the same points."


"Especially seeing in group B, France and Scotland also compete and they can only get 6 points if they win one of them."


"In group C, Portugal has 6 points."


"So who qualified in group C, it's definitely Portugal."


"Look at it like this, Indonesia may have to face off from these 3 teams. Portugal, Mexico, England."


"Which one do you think we better fight?" Ask the other commenter.


"Better against Mexico."


"Where there is a very sharp attacker, it will be an advantage for us to train our defense."


"But England is the same?" Ask her.


"Yes but I think the Mexican front is sharper."


The chatter between the two commentators continued while paying attention to the pace of Indonesia's match against Togo which has now entered the 32nd minute.


Until the 32nd minute, Indonesia has not scored but already has a total of 6 chances.


There were 6 shots but only 3 were on target and it was also saved by the opposing goalkeeper with ease.


the other 3 just sideways and fly over the crossbar.


Sean and his partner on the bench have also stood up every time they have a chance.


They prepared to celebrate but it never happened.


The match on the field which has now entered the 35th minute, possession of the ball is at the feet of Indonesian players.


Indonesian players try to press the opponent's territory with short pass passes.


Togo players certainly do not allow Indonesian players at will to control the ball calmly.


They press but not too tight as the Indonesian players do.


In the 37th minute, Todd Rivaldo who was on the left side dribbled with his agile and shrewd footwork.


He passed 1 and 2 opposing players.


But after passing those 2 players, he did not stop and continued to stab in.


When he was 16 meters from the goal, he glanced at the goal a little and immediately did a trick because he found in front of him there was an opposing defender.


With his quick and shrewd body deception, the opposing defender wavers in his balance.


Todd Rivaldo capitalized on that and went a little deeper.


When he was already on the penalty box line, he curled shots on purpose.


That he did because his goalkeeping position was a bit at the near post and he aimed his curling shot at the far post.


With the ball shot by Rivaldo, the goalkeeper tried to save him by jumping towards the pole away.


The other opposing defenders certainly did not close because they were late to cover the shot.
