2023 U17 World Cup, FIFA Security Expert Talks about Solving the JIS Problem
The Jakarta International Stadium (JIS), which is said to be one of the options for the 2023 U17 World Cup arena, continues to be the subject of discussion.
FIFA has yet to release the official date for the 2023 U17 World Cup which will take place in Indonesia.
However, according to PSSI, the schedule for the U17 World Cup will take place from 10 November to 2 December 2023.
Indonesia only had four months to prepare. However, the six stadiums that were previously prepared for the U20 World Cup are certain to be used.
The six stadiums are Gelora Bung Karno (Jakarta), Gelora Bung Tomo (Surabaya), Manahan (Solo), Captain I Wayan Dipta (Bali), Si Jalak Harupat (Bandung regency), and Gelora Sriwijaya Jakabaring (Palembang).
However, if the 2023 U17 World Cup goes according to the schedule mentioned by PSSI, the tournament will clash with the Coldplay concert at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium on November 15 2023.
The Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) is also said to be an alternative to the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium.
PSSI Chairperson, Erick Thohir, had revealed aspects that were still being noted for improvement for JIS, namely parking and access.
Nugroho Setiawan as the holder of the FIFA Safety and Security license admits that JIS still has deficiencies.
However, Nugroho Setiawan emphasized that there are mitigations so that JIS can be used as a venue for matches.
Piala Dunia U17 2023, Ahli Keamanan FIFA Bicara Pemecahan Problem JIS
Jakarta International Stadium (JIS), yang disebut menjadi salah satu opsi arena Piala Dunia U17 2023, terus menjadi bahan perbincangan.
FIFA belum merilis tanggal resmi penyelenggaraan Piala Dunia U17 2023 yang akan berlangsung di Indonesia.
Namun, menurut PSSI, jadwal Piala Dunia U17 bakal berlangsung pada 10 November sampai 2 Desember 2023.
Indonesia cuma punya waktu empat bulan untuk mempersiapkan diri. Namun, enam stadion yang sebelumnya disiapkan untuk Piala Dunia U20 dipastikan dapat digunakan.
Keenam stadion itu adalah Gelora Bung Karno (Jakarta), Gelora Bung Tomo (Surabaya), Manahan (Solo), Kapten I Wayan Dipta (Bali), Si Jalak Harupat (Kab. Bandung), dan Gelora Sriwijaya Jakabaring (Palembang).
Akan tetapi, jika Piala Dunia U17 2023 berjalan sesuai jadwal yang disebutkan PSSI, turnamen itu bentrok dengan konser Coldplay di Stadion Gelora Bung Karno pada 15 November 2023.
Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) pun disebut-sebut bisa menjadi alternatif selain Stadion Gelora Bung Karno.
Ketua Umum PSSI, Erick Thohir, sempat mengungkapkan aspek yang masih menjadi catatan perbaikan untuk JIS yaitu lahan parkir dan akses masuk.
Nugroho Setiawan selaku pemegang lisensi Safety and Security FIFA mengakui bahwa JIS masih memiliki kekurangan.
Namun, Nugroho Setiawan menegaskan bahwa ada mitigasinya agar JIS dapat layak digunakan sebagai tempat pertandingan.
