PHNOM PENH, KOMPAS — The Cambodian U-22 football team is expected to go all out when it meets Indonesia in their last Group A match at the SEA Games 2023 at 7 p.m. Western Indonesian Time on Wednesday (10/5/2023). While the noise from thousands of home fans will be an off-pitch factor that the Young Garuda must contend with, on pitch, coach Indra Sjafri looks likely to field a much-changed player lineup with a view to allowing key players enough time to rest for next matches.
Apart from having the upper hand over Cambodia in their SEA Games meetings, the Young Garuda must be on high alert. Cambodia has never defeated Indonesia in their seven previous encounters at the SEA Games, conceding 29 goals and scoring only two against Indonesia.
