PHUKET (9 Dec 2008) – Following the appeal put forward by the FA of Malaysia (FAM), the Appeals Committee of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 has decided that the final group matches in Group B will all be played at the main competition venue of the Surakul Stadium.
As a show of Asean solidarity, all four teams have agreed that the matches will be played one after the other instead of simultaneous kick-offs given the complexity of having a second viable venue. The revised Official Match Schedule for Group B on 10 December 2008 as follows: Match No. 11 – Thailand vs Malaysia, 1700hrs at Surakul Stadium, Phuket Match No. 12 – Vietnam vs Laos, 1930hrs at Surakul Stadium, Phuket |
