JAKARTA - The trial match for the Indonesian U-22 national team versus Tira Persikabo at the Gelora Bung Karno Intermediate Stadium, Jakarta, Wednesday at 20.00 WIB was canceled. The reason was that PSSI did not get permission from the police.

"This activity does not yet have a permit, so we forbid it to be carried out," said Kapolsek Metro Tanah Abang Kompol Singgih Hermawan at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium.

According to Singgih, the crowd permit has not been issued because the organizing committee was late in making submissions.

The committee, he continued, only submitted a letter related to the match on the day of the match.

"The committee has written but only today. Too tight," said Singgih emphasized.

In fact, the Indonesian U-22 national team players and Tira Persikabo arrived at the Gelora Bung Karno Intermediate Stadium, Jakarta, about an hour before the match.

However, they had to return to the inn because the police asked that the match not be held because there was no crowd permit yet.

Until this news was published, PSSI itself has not provided an official statement regarding the situation.

The U-22 national team, which is currently undergoing a training camp in preparation for the 2021 SEA Games, is scheduled to participate in two trial matches in March 2021.

Apart from facing Tira Persikabo, coach Shin Tae-yong's children will also face Bali United on Friday, March 5.
