Indonesia win first title since 1991, beating Thailand on penalties

Tuesday, 6 October 2026, 06:20 · 1 min read

Indonesia won the ASEAN Cup, a new FIFA-organised tournament for Southeast Asian nations, beating Thailand 4-2 on penalties after a 2-2 draw over 120 minutes. Elkan Baggott's 116th-minute equaliser forced the shootout, and the squad, packed with players who play or have played in the Netherlands, many of them Dutch-born, converted when it counted. It is Indonesia's first international trophy since the 1991 SEA Games (a multi-sport regional competition for Southeast Asian nations), ending a 35-year wait for a country of more than 280 million people with a passionate football following.
