Indonesia beats Oman 3-0 as Rizky Ridho earns 50th cap and Mathew Baker debuts
Indonesia's senior national football team defeated Oman 3‑0 on June 5, 2026 at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta. The victory marked the 50th appearance for defender Rizky Ridho, who has been a regular since his debut in 2021 under former coach Shin Tae‑yong and continues to play a key role under John Herdman. Ridho thanked supporters on Instagram, saying, “Alhamdulillah, 50 caps together with the national team. Thank you for the trust, support and prayers.”
Seventeen‑year‑old Mathew Baker of Melbourne City made his senior debut in the same match, coming on in the 80th minute to replace Ridho and becoming the youngest player ever to appear for Indonesia. Baker’s performance has sparked speculation about a move to Europe, with clubs such as Italy’s Venezia, England’s Oxford United, Belgium’s Lommel SK and the Netherlands’ FC Utrecht mentioned as possible destinations.
Both milestones highlight a new generation of Indonesian talent emerging on the international stage.
