Referee's Comment
Wahyu WICAKSONO
I officiated the match between Japan and Thailand in 2022. The match was played in a very friendly atmosphere and was very entertaining. It was great to see both teams play with different tactics, but at the same time with a lot of respect for each other at the end of the game. We expect the level of competition to be even higher this time around.
