The hashtag against the match being held at the Pakansari Stadium echoed in Iriawan's Instagram comment column. They campaigned in droves with the hashtag #TolakPakansari so that the trial match would be held again at JIS according to the initial decision.
As is known, the Indonesia vs Curacao national team match will start on Saturday (24/9/2022) and Tuesday (27/9/2022).
Initially, the plan for the two matches was held at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api (GBLA) Stadium in the first match and JIS in the second match.
The news was also broadcast on the official PSSI website on August 19 last. Secretary General (Secretary General) PSSI, Yunus Nusi, even gave this information directly.
Many consider the need for improvements at the Pakansari Stadium at this time. One of them is a field that often floods.
That moment occurred during the RANS Nusantara FC match against PSM Makassar in mid-August which had to be temporarily suspended.
