Indonesia secured a vital 1-0 victory against Bahrain in their Group C World Cup qualifier, marking head coach Patrick Kluivert's first win after a heavy loss. Ole Romeny's 24th-minute goal was crucial, helping Indonesia pull three points clear of Bahrain and China in the standings. Despite a lackluster performance from Indonesia in the second half, they held on to maintain hopes of qualifying for the World Cup for the first time since 1938. The team's improved showing indicates potential as they strive for a playoff spot in the remaining qualifiers.
"The win moves fourth-placed Indonesia three points clear of their opponents and China, who are bottom of the six-team group with both the fifth- and sixth-placed teams holding six points."
"Ole Romeny scored the only goal of the game in the 24th minute as he latched onto Marselino Ferdinan's pass before beating the keeper."
