00:00The Minister of Youth and Sports, Dito Aryotejo, affirmed the continuation of Group C, the third round of the World Cup Qualifier 2026 Asia Zone, between Indonesia and Bahrain, which will be held in March 2025, will still be held at the main stadium in Gelora Pungkarno, Jakarta.
00:24It was said by Dito in a press conference after he was re-appointed as a coach for the 2024-2029 season at the Jakarta Presidential Palace on Monday, October 21.
00:39According to Dito, the Bahrain Football Association, BFA, must abide by the rules, because the rules are already written in the World Cup Qualifier 2026 Regulation document released by the FIFA International Football Federation.
00:55Dito also said Indonesia could win the walkover or W.O. if Bahrain still does not want to play in Indonesia as the host country.
01:05So if there are claims or statements from the Bahrain side that says it feels unsafe in Indonesia, we can make sure that there is no potential threat or potential security that could endanger the Bahrain team.
01:21So there should be no reason and FIFA has also asked for the competition to remain in Indonesia, it must be in Indonesia. If not, it means winning the W.O.
01:32In the World Cup Qualifier 2026 Regulation document that has been released by FIFA, there is a sentence on page 10 that says,
01:41every team that withdraws after the competition starts will be punished.
01:47From Jakarta, Afra Augesti, Yogi Rahman, Antara News Agency, reported.
