JAKARTA (26 June 2019) – The Indonesian Under-23 team has lined up a friendly against Asian powerhouse Iran in November as part of their preparation for the year-end SEA Games in the Philippines.
“We have lined up the friendly against the Iran U23 as part of the team’s preparation, just two weeks before they leave for the Philippines,” said Ratu Tisha Destria, the general secretary of the FA of Indonesia (PSSI), and who is also a vice president of the AFF.
“We are looking for teams to play against during the months of September and October. We are waiting for the final programme submission from head coach Indra Sjafri on the proposed training camp.
“Iran would be the hardest opponent for the team, so we will arrange proper matches as a lead up to the big test.”
