JAKARTA - The good news was conveyed by PSSI ahead of the Indonesian national team appearing at AFF 2020. PSSI promised to provide bonuses if the national team was able to become champion in the prestigious competition throughout Southeast Asia.

This was conveyed by the Head of PSSI Mochammad Iriawan after undergoing a meeting at the Kemenpora who was also accompanied by the secretary-general of PSSI, Nusi Yunus. The PSSI general chairman guarantees that the bonus will be disbursed if the Garuda squad wins.

"We will definitely prepare the bonus. We will discuss the size of it first. What is clear (the bonus) against Taiwan has been given", said Iriawan in his statement, Wednesday, December 7.

Iriawan hopes that the national team's performance can be maximized when facing opponents in the 2020 AFF competition. For him, the bonus is expected to be an additional enthusiasm so that he can appear more motivated

"If there is a bonus, yes, we hope they can perform best in AFF. Hopefully (the Indonesian National Team) can take the championship in AFF. I want that, with an extraordinary performance", he continued.

The new Indonesian national team will start their struggle in the 2020 AFF Cup by facing Cambodia at Bishan Stadium on, Thursday, December 9. Unfortunately, in the first match, not all Garuda players were able to play.

That's because six names out of a total of 30 players will follow. Egy Maulana Vikri was the last player to join the Indonesian national team because his club FK Senica still needed him.
