JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team canceled their training on Saturday, January 7 afternoon in Vietnam ahead of the second leg of the 2022 AFF Cup. The reason is that the chartered plane carrying the Garuda Squad arrived late.

Initially, the national team was scheduled to leave for Vietnam at 13.00 WIB and was expected to arrive in Hanoi at 17.00 local time. After being in Vietnam, Egy Maulana Vikri et al have been waiting for the evening practice schedule.

However, quoted from Vietnamese media, Vnexpress, the chartered plane only departed Jakarta at 13.40 p.m., or 40 minutes late from its original schedule. The delay affected when arriving in Hanoi, which should have been at 17.00 p.m. to 18.00 p.m.

Sources also said that the delay in chartered aircraft made the Red and White Team suffer losses. With the missed time, the training agenda on Saturday night was canceled.

"However, the latest developments have harmed Indonesia, thus making the arrival earlier in Hanoi meaningless," wrote Vnexpress, quoted on Sunday, January 8.

However, preparations for the Indonesian national team ahead of the second leg of the 2022 AFF Cup semifinals at the My Dinh Stadium on Monday, January 9 were said to be luckyer than Vietnam in terms of time.

The reason is, Vietnam, which uses commercial aircraft for the semifinal second leg, actually arrived longer. The Golden Stars troops arrived at their home in Hanoi at 22.00 local time and made less rest time.

Both Vietnam and Indonesia are scheduled to have a technical meeting on Sunday, January 8 morning local time. After that the two teams held an official training session at My Dinh in the afternoon.
