Want to Build a Better Women's National Team, Satoru Mochizuki Wants More Time
Best for you Indonesia's women's national team coach Satoru Mochizuki wants more time to build his team, after he failed to lead Garuda Pertiwi to qualify for the 2026 Australia Women's Asian Cup, as quoted from ANTARA .
PSSI President Erick Thohir said he wants to review the work of the Japanese coach to decide whether to continue the cooperation or not when his contract ends in five months.
However, after the press conference following the 1-2 loss against Taiwan at Indomilk Arena, Tangerang Regency, on Saturday, Mochizuki indirectly hoped that his contract would be extended so that he could build the women's national team into a very strong team.
"So, indeed, when we build a team, it takes a long time. We have to build it bit by bit so that it can become solid. That's why I think, if given the opportunity, I want to build this team bit by bit so that it can become a very strong team," said Mochizuki.
The 61-year-old coach then cited Japan, who won the world championship in 2011 in Germany and won a silver medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, England. At that time, Mochizuki was an assistant coach under head coach Norio Sasaki.
"I and the Japanese team had the opportunity to win the Women's World Cup (2011). For Japan to achieve this, they worked hard and developed for 10 years, 20 years, even 30 years. So I also want to take the good things that can be applied in Indonesia and want to continue developing women's football in Indonesia," said Mochizuki, who was appointed as the coach of the national women's team in February 2024.
After the failure in the Asian Women's Cup qualification, Garuda Pertiwi has shifted its focus to the ASEAN Women's Championship tournament to be held next month in Vietnam.
"Every time we participate in a tournament, we want to win and be the champion. Now we are striving towards that goal. So now we are thinking about how to win," he said.
Furthermore, he said that it is possible his team will not be strengthened by several diaspora players in the tournament. Nevertheless, he is optimistic that his team can still give their best because they still have quality players such as Sheva Imut, Helsya Maeisyaroh, and Reva Octaviani.
"Probably we will be without diaspora players at AFF, because they play in the league. But we still have good players with extraordinary skills like Sheva, Helsya, Reva," he said.
Meanwhile, in the ASEAN Women's Championship, Indonesia is in Group A together with Vietnam, Thailand, and Cambodia. Vietnam and Thailand are strong forces in women's football, but Mochizuki welcomes the meetings with both countries because it can raise the level of his team higher.
"So when we want to become a team that can continue to play in the Asian Cup and qualify for it, of course we also have to keep looking at strong opponents like Thailand, Myanmar. We must keep trying to fight against them, we also see their strengths, and we must get used to fighting against them and winning, so that we can continue to improve ourselves in the future," he said.
