I came across this video after watching Paes' incredible performance in the Saudi vs Indonesia match. He has the potential to become a legendary goalkeeper, not just in Indonesia but across Asia as well. And FC Dallas will surely have a huge number of new fans from Indonesia.

Ketika mendapatkan kabar bahwa Marteen Paes akan membela timnas, neneknya menangis terharu, berita terkini nenek telah meninggal dunia sebulan yang lalu, mendengar kabar duka ini kami semua sangat merasa sedih, semoga nenek di tempatkan di tempat terindah disisinya. Aamiin. Paes kami percaya bahwa kita akan ke piala dunia bersama sama dan buat nenek bangga disana.

Real semua pemain diaspora Indonesia bermain dengan hati. Dan itu yg membuat mereka sangat bersemangat untuk bermain dikompetisi selanjutnya. Keren. Semoga Indonesia bisa lolos kepiala dunia di Amerika
