YOGYAKARTA The International Football Federation (FIFA) officially dropped Indonesia as the host of the 2023 U-20 World Cup. In fact, the event was originally scheduled to be held on May 20.

This deletion is related to the circumstances that have occurred in Indonesia in recent times. As is known, there have been rejections related to Israel's participation from several parties in the 2023 U-20 World Cup.

After announcing that the U-20 World Cup was canceled in Indonesia, FIFA underlined the potential sanctions for PSSI which is the parent of Indonesian football.

"The new host will be announced, with the current tournament date still unchanged. The potential sanctions against PSSI can also be decided in the next stage," said FIFA through its official website.

So what are the potential FIFA sanctions for Indonesia? Summarized from various sources, Thursday, March 30, 2023, the following are sanctions from FIFA that overshadow Indonesia after being canceled to host the U-20 World Cup.

One of the potential penalties for Indonesia is not being able to participate in FIFA activities. This can happen if the Indonesian Football Federation (PSSI) is frozen by FIFA.

The FIFA activities as mentioned above concern Indonesia's activities in the international arena, such as the Asian Cup to the World Cup.

Just so you know, Indonesia is currently trying to host the 2034 World Cup. However, this step could run aground in the middle of the road if Indonesia was dropped as a candidate due to canceling hosting the U-20 World Cup.

The potential for FIFA sanctions for Indonesia is to be suspended for the 2015-2016 period.

This was conveyed by a member of the PSSI Executive Committee (Exco), Arya Sinulingga recently.

If you are suspended, then Indonesia will not be able to undergo the FIFA-recognized trial and the ban on holding football competitions.

Apart from being suspended, Indonesia also has the potential to be excluded from world football.

"What I'm worried about is that we (PSSI) will be frozen. We are ostracized from the world. This is clearly very detrimental to Indonesian football in the future," Arya said in his statement, quoting VOI.

The impact of the sanctions imposed by FIFA is that the Indonesian League is not recognized by the International Football Federation.

As is known, Indonesia has three rolling league caste, such as League 1, League 2 and League 3. If the three leagues are not recognized by FIFA, then the continuity of the league in Indonesia can be said to be in vain.

As mentioned above, Indonesia will not be able to undergo a trial recognized by FIFA if it is suspended.

This suspension also makes Indonesia participate in international football tournaments. Even though the Indonesian national team is currently in extraordinary development.

If sanctioned, the Indonesian national team can only bite their fingers because they cannot participate in the FIFA-recognized international championships, such as the AFC and the AFC Cup (Asian Cup) which are staged every four years.
