KUALA LUMPUR (31 Jan 2008) – Argentina are through to the last four of the KL World 5's without having to raise a sweat.
Another convincing victory today, this time over Indonesia in their third Group A match at the Stadium Negara in Kuala Lumpur, has assured them of a spot in the top two of the group standing and a place in the semi-finals.
They play Australia tomorrow, Friday, 1 February, in their final preliminary round match to decide the group champion, but coach Jose Fernando has decided what he needs to do next.
"We want to avoid Brazil in the crossover semi-finals and knowing that they (Brazil) would finish as group champion, we want to finish champion in our group too and so that we not have to play them in the semi-finals," said Fernando.
That means Argentina, the defending champion when the tournament was last held in 2003, are bent on beating Australia to finish their group matches without a loss.
And just like England and Malaysia before them, Indonesia found the South Americans a tough nut to crack.
The sharpness of Christian Borutto, Argentina's top hit-man, was all too evident as he hit two early goals in the 2nd and 3rd minute to give the champion a 2-0 lead. His next goal in the 7th min put Indonesia in sixes and sevens.
Another three more goals before the half was over with a hat-trick from Alamiro Vaporaki in the 11th,17th and 18th, made it even harder for the Indonesians.
Said Indonesia head coach Justinus Lhaksana: "We were completely outplayed and outfought in the first period. It was only after we changed our strategy in the second period did we managed to contain the Argentineans. But it's always difficult to play against such a strong side.
"Of course we fought hard, especially in the second half and I am proud of my team's performance. If we can improve on what we had just did maybe we will even be a better team in the making."
