Indonesia's national football team claimed the 2026 FIFA ASEAN Cup title on October 5, 2026, defeating Thailand 4–2 in a penalty shootout after a 2–2 draw in extra time at Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno (SUGBK) in Jakarta.

The match began scoreless at halftime, with both teams creating chances but unable to convert. Indonesia opened scoring through Dean James via a free kick in the 84th minute. Thailand equalized when Iklas Sanron capitalized on a defensive lapse to level the match at 1–1. The contest extended into extra time, where Peeradol Chamrasamee put Thailand ahead 2–1 in the 111th minute with a low shot to the right corner. Elkan Baggott restored parity for Indonesia five minutes later, forcing a penalty shootout.

In the shootout, Indonesia's successful penalty takers were Kevin Diks, Dean James, Elkan Baggott, and Shayne Pattynama, who scored the decisive fourth penalty with a low shot into the right corner. Thailand's third and fourth penalty takers, Sarach Yooyen and Nattapong Sayriya, both failed to convert, with Sayriya's attempt saved by goalkeeper Emil Audero. The victory gave Indonesia its first ASEAN Cup title in 35 years.

Shayne Pattynama, a defender for Persija Jakarta, became a key figure in the triumph despite joining the squad late as an injury replacement. He appeared in the final only when substituted on in the 101st minute to replace Justin Hubner and successfully executed his penalty kick. Coach John Herdman credited the team's mental resilience and defensive organization, noting that Thailand displayed quality and experience typical of a previous ASEAN Cup-winning nation. Indonesia gained 3.35 FIFA ranking points from the draw in regulation, rising to 117th in the FIFA world rankings with 1,166.50 total points.
