Romeny scores on international debut for Indonesia
- Published
Oxford United forward Ole Romeny has scored on his debut for international side Indonesia during their World Cup qualifier against Australia.
The 24-year-old earned his maiden senior international call-up after joining the U's in the January transfer window from Dutch side FC Utrecht, scoring once in his nine Championship appearances.
The goal was nothing more than a consolation, having already conceded four before the Socceroo's Jackson Irvine slotted home a fifth in the 90th minute for an Australian victory.
Netherlands-born Romeny qualifies for Indonesia through his maternal grandmother and attained citizenship for the south-east Asian country in February.
He was joined in the starting XI by fellow Oxford team-mate Marselino Ferdinan who played 79 minutes at Sydney's Allianz Stadium.
