Indonesia received a shock when Ferdinan could not attend the 33rd SEA Games. Now is the time for the defending SEA Games champion to forget about Ferdinan and focus on what they have.

U22 Philippines won U22 Myanmar in the opening match of Group C. Meanwhile, U22 Indonesia will play their opening match this afternoon. The victory of U22 Philippines will put pressure on U22 Indonesia, as the defending champion must defeat their opponent to gain an advantage in the race for the top spot in the group.
Before the match, U22 Indonesia received bad news because they could not summon the number 1 star Ferdinan. Without Ferdinan, the strength of U22 Indonesia will certainly decline and their championship ambition will face more difficulties. Footballers in Indonesia have boldly declared their ambition to defend the SEA Games men's football title. In the opening match against U22 Philippines, U22 Indonesia will have a strong enough "test".
U22 Philippines played well against U22 Singapore. Against U22 Myanmar, U22 Philippines showed good cohesion, played diverse attacks and maintained a cohesive squad in a 4-4-2 formation. However, the victory over U22 Myanmar does not say much for U22 Philippines. Against U22 Indonesia, things will be different for the team under coach McPherson.
At the 32nd SEA Games, U22 Indonesia defeated U22 Philippines 3-0 in the group stage. That was a match in which U22 Indonesia completely outplayed a U22 Philippines that lacked cohesion. After 2 years, U22 Philippines' strength is considered better and this team set a goal of reaching the semi-finals of the SEA Games for the first time in history.
U22 Philippines has warmed up since the match with U22 Myanmar, while U22 Indonesia has had a long break before playing the first match. This is a small advantage for U22 Philippines as their preparation for the big match is quite good. Meanwhile, U22 Indonesia had to quickly change their plan because Ferdinan could not return.
