On the evening of July 11 (local time), PSSI sent an official document to the Southeast Asian Football Federation (AFF), requesting the tournament organizing committee to investigate the match between U19 Vietnam and U19 Thailand in the final match of Group A of the 2022 Southeast Asian U19 tournament.

"We understand that U19 Indonesia cannot participate in the semi-finals due to tournament regulations. We also understand that to continue, U19 Indonesia must rely on its own ability, instead of depending on other teams.

Mr. Mochamad Iriawan, head of PSSI (right), said that U19 Vietnam and U19 Thailand played without determination in the final minutes of the match.

However, PSSI believes that in the match between U19 Vietnam and U19 Thailand, the players did not play fair. Vietnamese and Thai football are both big football teams in the region, is it appropriate for them to do so? We are not accusing, we are just asking questions," PSSI stated.

In a meeting this afternoon with Indonesian football officials, PSSI President Mochamad Iriawan affirmed that there is no problem with the tournament's regulations (regarding the consideration of head-to-head results to determine rankings).

However, PSSI believes that the last 27 minutes of the match between U19 Vietnam and U19 Thailand were unusual, especially when the match ended with a score of 1-1. Indonesia believes that U19 Vietnam and U19 Thailand "only passed the ball to the back line and had no intention of attacking" during this period.
