The Indonesian national soccer team, led by coach Shin Tae-yong, suffered a defeat against Iraq in the 5th match of Group

F in the 2026 North and Central America World Cup Asian region 2nd qualifying round due to a 'sending off' incident.

Indonesia lost 0-2 to Iraq in the fifth match of Group F in the second round of the 2026 North and Central America World

Cup Asian qualifying round held at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia on the 6th (Korean time).

Iraq (15 points), which had already secured its spot in the third preliminary round in March, continued its five-game

winning streak in the second preliminary round, while Indonesia (7 points) failed to secure its spot in the third preliminary

round with its loss 합법 today.

However, Indonesia can advance to the third preliminary round regardless of the final match result if Vietnam (3 points)

and the Philippines (1 point) lose in the fifth match, which is immediately followed by the third-place 'Kim Sang-sik Team'

match.

The first half was tight.

In the 16th minute of the first half, Iraq's Ibrahim Bayesh headed the ball into the goal net first from the right side of the

goal area, but the goal was ruled to be disallowed after it was ruled that he pushed a defender.

Indonesia went on the counterattack, but in the 20th minute of the first half, Rafael Struik's shot from the left side of the

penalty area was blocked by the goalkeeper.

Iraq, who finished the first half scoreless, scored 9 minutes into the second half.

Iraq's Ali Jassim's cross from the left of the penalty area was blocked by Indonesian defender Justin Hubner's hand, and a

penalty goal was awarded to Iraq's Aymen Hussein, who stepped up to take the kick.

Indonesia, which conceded a goal, fell into a 'numerical disadvantage' when defender Jordi Amat, who was blocking a

counterattack in the 14th minute of the second half, received a red card and was sent off after tripping an opposing player.

Iraq, which had raised the level of its offensive, missed its second penalty kick in the 27th minute of the second half after a

foul by the opposing goalkeeper, and Indonesia focused on hunting for an equalizer.

However, Indonesia collapsed in the 43rd minute of the second half when the goalkeeper, who received a back pass from a

defender, made a mistake by losing the ball under pressure from an Iraqi attacker, and gave up another goal to Iraq's Ali

Jassim.
