Shayne Pattynama only joined the Indonesian team on January 15. At that time, this player was not fit enough to play in the match between Indonesia and Iraq that evening.

Shayne Pattynama hopes to play in the match against the Vietnamese team at 9:30 p.m. on January 19.

Regarding this match, the Dutch left-back said: "I don't have much information about the Vietnamese team, initially I only know that they are a team with very good ball control ability. Vietnamese players are very agile."

Shayne Pattynama revealed more: "The Vietnamese team played well against Japan, we have to study their strengths and weaknesses.

The Vietnam team is an interesting challenge for us. The Indonesian team is planning for this match."

In the opening match, Indonesia lost 1-3 to Iraq. This was a match in which the team from the archipelago did not play well. In particular, the left-back position occupied by Pratama Arhan was often exploited by Iraqi players.

With the arrival of Shayne Pattynama, Indonesia is likely to replace the Dutch-born player in Pratama Arhan's position, helping Indonesia's left wing play better.

Shayne Pattynama himself commented: "We have to learn lessons from the match against Iraq. That was a match in which the Indonesian team did not perform well. Therefore, we need to focus even more on the next match."

"The whole team has to work hard and find our confidence again. At the same time, we have to focus on thinking about the next opponent," Shayne Pattynama emphasized.

The winner of the match between Vietnam and Indonesia not only has hope of competing for a ticket to the 1/8 round of the 2023 Asian Cup but also helps the winning team's coach significantly reduce the pressure they have been under in recent times.

This match takes place at 9:30 p.m. on January 19, at Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium, in Doha (Qatar).
