Although not recognised by PSSI, these matches are treated by the World Football Elo ratings as the first matches involving the Indonesian national side.
After defeating the Japanese, 7–1, in its first match, the next two matches ended in defeats (2–0 to China and 3–2 to the host nation) resulting in a second-place tournament finish for the Java national team. In 1934, a team from Java represented the Dutch East Indies in the Far Eastern Games that was played in Manila. This was followed by matches against an Australian XI in August 1928 (2–1 victory) and a team from Shanghai two years later (4–4 draw). The match was played in Batavia and the Dutch East Indies won with a final score of 1–0. The first recorded match that involved a team from the Dutch East Indies was a contest against a Singapore national team on 28 March 1921. The matches that were run prior to the nation's independence in 1945 are not recognised by PSSI. The matches involving sides from the Dutch East Indies (or Netherlands East Indies) were organised by the Nederlandsch Indische Voetbal Bond (NIVB), or its successor, the Nederlandsch Indische Voetbal Unie (NIVU). They share a local rivalry with ASEAN teams including the one against Malaysia which is somewhat pertained to cultural and political reasons. The team has reached the AFF Championship final ties on six occasions and has never won the tournament. Indonesia achieved the bronze medal at the 1958 Asian Games in Tokyo.
Indonesia qualified for the AFC Asian Cup on five occasions and have never progressed beyond the group stage on the previous four tournaments. The team's only appearance in the Olympics was in 1956. Thus, Indonesia holds the World Cup record as the team with the fewest matches played (1) and one of the teams with the fewest goals scored (0). The 6–0 loss to eventual finalists Hungary in the first round remains the nation's only appearance in the World Cup. They were the first Asian team to participate in the FIFA World Cup, particularly in the 1938 edition as the Dutch East Indies. The Indonesia national football team ( Indonesian: Tim nasional sepak bola Indonesia) represents Indonesia in international football.
