In fact, coach Shin Tae-yong had a profound influence on Indonesia's rise in FIFA rankings. He started his career in Indonesia by taking over as Indonesia coach in 2020, and led the overall growth of the Indonesian national team by taking over the national team by age. He finished second at the 2020 Southeast Asian Football Federation (AFF) Suzuki Cup and was fourth at the 2022 AFF Mitsubishi Cup. The Indonesian national team included several naturalized players in the national team to further strengthen their power. Several European players, including those born in the Netherlands and Belgium, joined the Indonesian national team after Shin Tae-yong's appointment.

At the 2023 Asian Cup in Qatar, he garnered more attention by achieving the best performance among Southeast Asian countries. Indonesia lost to Iraq and Japan at the time, but advanced to the round of 16 after catching Vietnam. Unfortunately, they were eliminated in the round of 16 with a 0-4 loss to Australia. Immediately, he showed better performance at the U-23 Qatar Asian Cup. Despite meeting South Korea in the quarterfinals, Indonesia advanced to the semifinals by beating South Korea led by head coach Hwang Sun-hong. Although he ultimately failed to advance to the Olympics, much attention was paid to coach Shin's ability to show his potential. Since then, he has surprised everyone with better-than-expected performances, including draws with Australia and Saudi Arabia in the third qualifying round of the World Cup.




However, Indonesia changed its mind starting with the Mitsubishi Cup. When he was eliminated due to poor performance because he did not play with his elite strength, he immediately shook coach Shin and decided to be replaced. He immediately went on to appoint a new coach. Klawibert was appointed as the successor coach, and he will lead Indonesia anew with the goal of advancing to the World Cup finals. Since Klawibert's appointment, Indonesia has made efforts to strengthen its power by further naturalization, but no major achievements have been made yet.

Meanwhile, Chairman Tohir, who fired head coach Shin Tae-yong, later made sophistry in interviews. When criticism poured out over the appointment of Klaubert after the dismissal of Shin Tae-yong, he said, `I don't want to pursue popularity. Why did he miss Shin Tae-yong if he was pursuing popularity. We had big dreams and goals, so we had to find a way to maximize them." You'll see "Clawebert as a strong leader."," he said, showing his confidence.
