Indonesia who impressed massivly in Asian Cup was thrashed by Syria! How is that possible?


Syria, who thrashed Indonesia away 4-1 in the first leg, continued their brilliant performance at home winning the second leg 7-0 in Damascus. Striker Ziad Chabo scored a hat-trick for the West Asians’ 11-1 aggregate win scoring in 38, 43 and 86th minutes. Raja Rafe scored a brace in the 59 and 90th minutes. Ali Dyab (74) and Jehad Al Hussein (79) contributed a goal apiece in this big victory for Syria.

Indonesia was never a mention worthy team in Asia... the only reason they performed relatively decent in Asia was because they were hosts..

Syria on the other hand is a solid Class B team in Asia, way better than the likes of Indonesia, Vietnam and maybe even Jordan, Thailand and Kuwait.

indonesia..was kind of impressive in the asian cup....but syria is a solid team..they have been working on their team for awhile..and have really improved over the year..

twice their U -20 qualified for the world cup...so they do have some talent in their ranks..also..they have had the same foriegn coach raodatomivic for the past..6 years....

so they are a organised team..which is relatively discinpled when it comes to defending and attacking..

they stick to a game plan..so that they are pretty strategic in their approach..

also..their Best play Zada Chaboo played for perspolis last year and he scored..3 goals.....
