隨著3月份兩輪18強賽的結束，國足所在的C組形勢基本明朗，日本提前直通世界盃，澳大利亞跟沙特爭二，印尼、巴林、國足爭四，最後兩輪比賽將在6月初進行。

Looking back at last year, when the six rounds were over, the group was in a state of utter chaos. With the exception of the Japanese team, who were far ahead, the largest point difference between second and sixth place was only 1 points. At that stage, every team has the potential to stand out, and the suspense of qualifying is infinitely magnified, so that the hearts of the fans are always hanging in the air.

而隨著 3 月份兩輪關鍵比賽的結束，整個小組的競爭格局終於大致確定。我們的國足在提前無緣直通世界杯的情況下，不得不將目標轉向爭奪一個進入附加賽階段的寶貴資格。

In the upcoming fixtures, the battle between Australia and Saudi Arabia for second place in the group is full of suspense, and this suspense will most likely not be finally revealed until the final round of matches.

Because the two teams will face each other directly, this matchup will undoubtedly be the focus of the entire group competition. Not only that, but Japan's attitude towards Australia in the next round away will also be crucial, and their strategic choices may have a profound impact on the group standings.

另外，國足與印尼隊、巴林隊對第四名的競爭同樣扣人心弦。6 月份的兩場比賽，國足將首先客場挑戰印尼隊，隨後在主場迎接巴林隊的挑戰。

According to detailed statistics, the national football team has achieved an excellent record of 1 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses in a total of 0 meetings with Indonesia in the past. The only defeat was back in the World Preliminary Tournament in 0, and since then, the national football team has been unbeaten in a row. The most recent meeting was in the fourth round of last year's round of 0, when the national football team managed to win 0-0 at home against Indonesia.

Moreover, the national football team has played 0 times with the Bahrain team and has achieved a continuous unbeaten record of 0 wins and 0 draws. The most recent meeting took place in the fifth round of last year's round of 0, when the national football team defeated Bahrain 0-0 with tenacious hard work on the road.

However, the balance of strength between the two teams has changed significantly due to the problems with Ivankovic's employment strategy and the massive increase in naturalized players in Indonesia. In addition, the national football team is playing away from home this time, facing many unfavorable factors, and it is almost difficult to defeat the Indonesian team.

If it loses, the national football team will be eliminated in one round in advance, and even if it may be a draw in the end, the national football team will most likely be eliminated. And when facing Bahrain at home in the final round, the national football team is expected to remain unbeaten at least.

Based on the analysis of various factors, it is very unlikely that the national football team will overtake Indonesia and Bahrain and rise to fourth place and enter the play-offs. At most, they may be able to beat Bahrain and finish fifth in the group.
