By being in the same group as Thailand and Singapore, one of the Indonesian FIFA Online 4 athletes, Rizky Faidan, expressed a little concern. The reason, both countries have won the highest tournament FIFA Online 4.

Some of you may not know that FIFA Online (including FIFA Online 4/FO4) is different from FIFA. FIFA is published by Electronic Arts (EA), while FIFA Online is published by Garena.
Based on an interview conducted by Hybrid, Fadh Karim as the coach of the eNation Squad appointed by PSSI, the two games are not much different from the previous FIFA.
"Actually, the game is not much different from the previous FIFA-FIFA. Because the engine is indeed the previous FIFA console mixed with some META from the previous FIFA console series. However, if you compare the current FIFA console games (FIFA 22, PS5) and FIFA Online 4, the two are clearly very different games," he told Hybrid.
If you are an esports fan, especially for the FIFA Online game, you must have realized that the four Indonesian athletes at the SEA Games this time were not FIFA Online players. Aziz, Ega, and Pugu are FIFA players (EA release). Meanwhile, Rizky Faidan is a PES (eFootball) player.
However, this reason did not make the Indonesian national team FIFA Online 4 at the SEA Games uneasy. They admit that they are still optimistic about winning gold from their opponents. You can watch FIFA number 4 online via TBA's YouTube channel.
