أَعْلَنَ الِاتِّحَادُ الْأُرْدُنِيُّ لِكُرَةِ الْقَدَمِ إِلْغَاءَ مُبَارَاةٍ وُدِّيَّةٍ مَعَ إِنْدُونِيسِيَا. وَكَانَ الْفَرِيقَانِ سَيَلْعَبَانِ فِي عَمَّانَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ، ١٣ نُوفَمْبَرَ. وَجَاءَ الْإِعْلَانُ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ، ٥ نُوفَمْبَرَ.

طَلَبَ الِاتِّحَادُ الْإِنْدُونِيسِيُّ إِلْغَاءَ اللِّقَاءِ، وَقَدَّمَ اعْتِذَارًا عَنْ عَدَمِ لَعِبِهِ. وَقَالَ مَسْؤُولٌ مِنَ الِاتِّحَادِ الْإِنْدُونِيسِيِّ لِوَكَالَةِ رُويْتَرْز إِنَّ مَخَاوِفَ أَمْنِيَّةً كَانَتْ سَبَبًا رَئِيسِيًّا لِلْقَرَارِ. وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الِاتِّحَادُ الْأُرْدُنِيُّ هٰذَا السَّبَبَ فِي إِعْلَانِهِ.

وَمَعَ ذٰلِكَ، بَقِيَتْ مُبَارَاةُ الْأُرْدُنِّ مَعَ أُسْتُرَالِيَا فِي مَوْعِدِهَا. سَتُلْعَبُ فِي عَمَّانَ يَوْمَ الثُّلَاثَاءِ، ١٧ نُوفَمْبَرَ. وَيُوَاصِلُ الِاتِّحَادُ الْأُرْدُنِيُّ الْبَحْثَ عَنْ فُرَصٍ جَيِّدَةٍ لِإِعْدَادِ الْفَرِيقِ. وَتُسَاعِدُ هٰذِهِ الْمُبَارَيَاتُ الْوُدِّيَّةُ اللَّاعِبِينَ عَلَى التَّدَرُّبِ قَبْلَ الْمُبَارَيَاتِ الرَّسْمِيَّةِ.
