Stefano Lilipaly couldn’t hide his happiness at having returned to strengthen the Indonesian National Team. This time, Lilipaly will be escorting the national team against Bangladesh in the FIFA Matchday friendly match, Wednesday (01/06).
The player who has strengthened Bali United is optimistic that the Indonesian national team will achieve positive results in the match against Bangladesh later.
Stefano Lilipaly comments on the Asian Cup Qualifiers:
“Indonesia won the bronze medal in the SEA Games 2021, and that was a good result. However, it was finished. Now, we have to do our best to qualify for the Asian Cup.”

“We focus first on fighting Bangladesh. This is my first training with the team. I see a lot of young players with extraordinary quality and potential. I hope we can get the best results,” said Lilipaly as quoted from the PSSI official website.
In addition, the match against Bangladesh will feel special for the 32-year-old player. The reason is that the new Borneo FC player has not been called to strengthen the national team for a long time.
