Local media, Arriyadiyah, reported that during the match the Saudi Arabian supporters' board will distribute green T-shirts and scarfs.

The goal is to unite the entire stadium with green domination as a form of support for the Saudi Arabia National Team (Timnas).

Not only that, the plan is also a moment to unfurl a giant banner. That way, Saudi Arabian players are expected to be motivated and make the visitors mentally excited.

"The sources confirmed that the supporters' board plans to unfurl a giant banner that has motivated both matches (against Indonesia and Iraq)."

"Creating a lively atmosphere of supporters starting from warm-up time and not stopping until the final whistle even though the idea of making Tifo is still postponed," Arriyadiyah wrote, quoted Tuesday, October 7, 2025.

After facing Saudi Arabia, then on October 12, 2025, early morning WIB, at the same stadium, the Indonesian national team will challenge Iraq.
