Indonesia secures FIFA ASEAN Cup final spot with 9-2 win over Bangladesh

Indonesia secured a spot in the FIFA ASEAN Cup 2026 final after a dramatic 9-2 victory over Bangladesh at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium. The win allowed Indonesia to finish top of Group A on goal difference, surpassing Malaysia, who also finished with seven points after defeating Singapore 6-0.

Mitchell Lee Baker was the standout performer, scoring five goals during the match. Other scorers for Indonesia included Rizky Ridho, Justin Hubner, Luke Vickery, and Kevin Diks. The match featured significant drama during stoppage time, which was extended to seven minutes following a refereeing error, allowing Indonesia to score two crucial late goals to secure the necessary goal margin.

Malaysia's 6-0 win against Singapore, highlighted by a hat-trick from Bergson da Silva, was ultimately insufficient to overtake Indonesia in the standings. Indonesia will now face Thailand in the final on October 5.
