FIFA Appoints Indonesia as Host for 2023 U-17 World Cup
WARTAKOTALIVECOM, JAKARTA — FIFA has officially appointed Indonesia as the host for the 2023 U-17 World Cup which is planned to be held in November.
During a council meeting held today, FIFA determined the host of several tournament titles that are under their auspices. Among them is the 2023 U-17 World Cup, with FIFA officially appointing Indonesia as the host.
However, Indonesia is not the only country mentioned in the announcement. FIFA also mentioned other countries that will host various FIFA tournaments. According to FIFA’s official statement, “The council also appointed Indonesia as the host for the 2023 U17 World Cup, Colombia as the host for the 2024 U20 Women’s World Cup, Dominica as the host for the 2024 U17 Women’s World Cup, and Uzbekistan as the host for the 2024 Futsal World Cup.”
The decision to appoint Indonesia as the host for the 2023 U-17 World Cup was a follow-up decision taken after FIFA withdrew its host status from Peru on April 3. Peru, which was initially entrusted with hosting the tournament, was deemed unable to fulfill its commitment to complete the necessary infrastructure.
As the highest authority in world football, FIFA revoked Peru’s status as the host for the 2023 U-17 World Cup after discussing it with the government of the South American country. Now, FIFA is handing over this trust to Indonesia, which has also previously experienced the drama of revoking host status.
Indonesia had previously gone through the drama of revoking host status when preparing to hold another FIFA tournament, namely the 2023 U-20 World Cup.
The appointment of Indonesia as the host for the 2023 U-17 World Cup is a great opportunity for the country to showcase its capabilities in organizing international sporting events. It is expected that Indonesia will make the necessary preparations to ensure the success of the tournament and provide a memorable experience for players and fans alike.
What impact will hosting the 2023 U-17 World Cup have on Indonesia’s international reputation and organizational capabilities
