Some time ago I heard that the U20 world cup failed to be held in Indonesia because FIFA decided to revoke Indonesia's name as the host due to problems that occurred in Indonesia.
Actually it would be a shame if Indonesia failed to host the U20 World Cup because the development of Indonesian football is actually quite good and Indonesia is also one of the countries with a good national football team in Asia.
Until now I have not heard which country will replace Indonesia and I am also still wondering why FIFA was able to pass a decision that Indonesia's name was revoked as the host of the U20 world cup.
Here does anyone hear and know the update on this U20 world cup issue.
Because I come from Indonesia of course it becomes a hot debate and it's quite sickening to see all the debates on television or the media because all the debates are only about politics and that's politics they don't understand sports they need to do what the majority likes because there will be elections in less than 2 years so that seeking the attention of the electorate is important even though in the end it sacrifices other things for things that are not even important.
The development of football in Indonesia is not as great as what you might get in the media, even in Asia it is still quite behind, so when Indonesia is no longer the host of the U-20 World Cup, it is actually a loss for this country's football, not FIFA or other participating countries because if we have to go through qualification the chance to advance is very slim or even impossible, because the football competition here is not as good as imagined.
If I'm not mistaken, Argentina replaces Indonesia and Argentina has quite an advantage because as far as I know, their U-20 national team did not qualify, so with this appointment, they will automatically qualify and play.
