Mochamad Iriawan believes that coach Shin Tae-yong can outsmart the stamina of his players. Must have gone down a bit because of the busy schedule.
“I saw that. Stamina dropped a bit. However, then bounced back in the middle of the second half after Shin Tae-yong entered Rahmad Irianto, Syahrian Abhimanyu, and Ronaldo Kwateh. I think the tight schedule made stamina drain a bit. I’m sure Shin had anticipated this. that,” closed Iriawan.
