JAKARTA - The coach of the Indonesian National Team (Timnas) Shin Tae-yong asked supporters of the national team not to blame flares (tongues of fire) again in the 2022 AFF U-19 Cup competition.
A group of supporters made fire when Indonesia drew 0-0 against Vietnam in the preliminary Group A at Candrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, West Java, on Saturday, July 2 yesterday.
Shin said that it should not be done again in the next game because it would disturb the focus of his foster children.
"So I hope something like that doesn't happen again," said the South Korean coach.
The flames made by this group of supporters took place in the final minutes of the match.
Apart from flares, they also set off firecrackers. Like previous events, PSSI is threatened with sanctions due to the actions of these supporters.
"I thank the fans who have supported us. However, I ask the fans to change the negative culture little by little. Moreover, Indonesia is threatened with heavy sanctions from FIFA because of this incident," said Shin.
A draw against Vietnam put Indonesia in fourth place in the group standings.
Vietnam is in third place, while Myanmar and Thailand fill first and second respectively.
Meanwhile, Brunei and the Philippines, who lost in their inaugural match, had to settle for being caretakers.
Indonesia will next face Brunei on Monday, July 4 tomorrow.
