Gelora bung karno stadium

AFC Asian FIFA WC Qualifiers: Indonesia produced a tremendous performance to stun Saudi Arabia 2-0 for a historic result as they revived their Group C campaign in the AFC Asian FIFA WC Qualifiers at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium here on Tuesday.

Marselino Ferdinan scored on either side of half-time to give Shin Tae-yong’s side a historic win which took them to six points, level with Saudi Arabia and China PR. Australia are also on six points but meet Bahrain later on Tuesday.

Saudi Arabia survived a scare in the first minute when Indonesia’s Ivar Jenner sent a well-timed through ball for Marselino, who squeezed his shot past Saudi Arabia keeper Ahmed Al Kassar, only to be denied by the right post. Indonesia almost found a way through in the fifth minute with Rizky Ridho sending a long ball through for Ragnar Oratmangoen, whose effort from inside the six-yard box was blocked by Hassan Tambakti.
