In Group C of the 3rd qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia, the Japanese team showed their superiority by quickly winning a direct ticket to the 2026 World Cup with the top spot in the group.
The remaining ticket will be the competition between Australia (13 points), Saudi Arabia (10 points) and Indonesia (9 points), until the end of the 8th round.
In this round, Australia defeated Japan in the early match. With this result, the Indonesian team certainly cannot finish with one of the top two positions.
However, coach Patrick Kluivert's team still has to beat China. Three points will help Indonesia secure a place in the top 4, thereby winning a place in the play-off round.
In the play-off round, 6 teams will compete for 2.5 tickets to the 2026 World Cup. At that time, Indonesia's opportunity is wide open. As for China, with 6 points in hand, they can still dream of the play-off round if they defeat Indonesia. The opportunity is still divided equally between the 2 teams, but everything will end with the losing team in this decisive match.
