The Indonesian women's team is on a month-long training trip in Japan. Here, the team from the archipelago has chosen quite strong opponents. Right in the first match that took place yesterday (September 26), they tasted the difference in class.

Urawa Reds are one of the strongest teams in Japan. They won the 2022/23 season and finished 2nd in the 2021/22 season. They will face Ho Chi Minh City Women's Team in the Asian Women's C1 Cup in October. Therefore, the Indonesian Women's Team is not an opponent of this team.
Urawa Reds played with no respect for their opponents. In the first half, the Japanese team scored 8 goals against their Indonesian opponents. The team from the archipelago scored a consolation goal in the 20th minute.
However, in the second half, the Indonesian team showed signs of fatigue and could not withstand the stormy attacks from Urawa Reds. In this half, Urawa Reds scored 10 more goals. The match ended with a score of 18-1 in favor of the Japanese representative.
Notably, the Indonesian women's team almost broke the record for the biggest defeat in history. If Urawa Reds score another goal, they will become the team with the biggest win against Indonesia. In the past, the Indonesian women's team lost 0-18 to the Australian women's team.

After this defeat, the Indonesian women's team continued to train in Japan. They need to improve a lot to keep up with the level of the teams there.
According to the Indonesian press, the country's women's team could welcome more players of Indonesian origin in the Netherlands to improve the quality of the squad. In Southeast Asia, the Philippine women's team has reached the continental level thanks to the use of many players of American origin. Therefore, Indonesia also wants to use naturalized players to shorten the gap in skill level. The Indonesian men's team has been very successful with this policy.
