Indonesia Beats Oman 3-0 Boosts FIFA Rank and Features Teen Defender Debut

Indonesia's senior football team defeated Oman 3-0 on 5 June 2026 at the Gelora Bung Karno stadium in Jakarta. The goals were scored by Justin Hubner, Ole Romeny and Ragnar Oratmangoen. Thai outlet Ballthai and Dutch media Voetbal Primeur praised the performance, noting the dominance over a higher‑ranked opponent.

The win added about 6.56 points to Indonesia's FIFA rating, moving the team to 119th place and bringing it within striking distance of the top‑100. A forthcoming FIFA Matchday against Mozambique, ranked 102, is seen as decisive; a victory could raise Indonesia into the 100‑team bracket.

In the same match, 17‑year‑old defender Mathew Baker made his senior debut in the 80th minute. Analyst Haris Pardede highlighted his impact, stating, "Salah satu yang menyita perhatian tentu Mathew Baker. Luar biasa." The debut is viewed as an investment in the national team's defensive future.
