Indonesia Set for Global Tests in the 2026 FIFA Series
Indonesia will take on opponents from Europe, the Caribbean, and Oceania in the FIFA Series scheduled for March–April 2026. As one of the eight nations selected to host the event, Indonesia gains a rare opportunity to face teams from outside Asia. This expanded range of opponents marks an important step in exposing the national team to new styles of play.
The hosting role gives the Indonesian squad valuable access to opponents with contrasting tactical backgrounds. The chance to meet teams with stronger discipline, technical quality, or unique regional characteristics is expected to challenge the players’ adaptability. Such matchups are seen as part of Indonesia’s broader effort to elevate its competitiveness on the international stage.
FIFA Series itself is designed to connect teams from different confederations in official friendly matches. For Indonesia, the program offers a break from the usual cycle of AFC-only opponents and introduces fresh dynamics for both players and coaching staff. Facing a more diverse range of football cultures will provide useful insights and help refine long-term development strategies.
Indonesia joins seven other hosts for the 2026 edition, including Australia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Mauritius, Puerto Rico, Rwanda, and Uzbekistan. This expanded lineup builds on the first FIFA Series in 2024, which was held across five host nations. The upcoming tournament is expected to deliver broader global exposure and enrich the learning curve for all participating teams.
