The VAR in the U-17 will be used later and this system is the same as the one to be used in the league (League 1 2023/2024) for February. And this is the trial error here (World Cup U-17), "he explained.
Erick Thohir also discussed the sale of tickets for the 2023 U-17 World Cup. He is optimistic that bringing this agenda will attract public interest even though the capacity of stadiums in the country is above average from other countries.
On average, our stadium is 25 thousand, there are 40 thousand 80,000. FIFA targets not half the capacity of the stadium, but 10 thousand (conceptors) are enough, because our stadium is big. Many other countries are only 5 thousand to 7 thousand or 12 thousand. We show the best we have," said Erick.
