The bus carrying the Indonesian U22 team back to the hotel in the capital city of Jakarta was almost unable to move. Thousands of fans had been waiting for this moment to welcome their "hero" back after winning the 32nd SEA Games championship. Coach Indra Sjafri and his team defeated U22 Thailand to win the gold medal after 32 years of waiting.
Fans lit flares and chanted the national team's slogans on the streets of Sanayan, Jakarta. The U22 Indonesia bus had difficulty moving from the highway to the hotel. Police had to intervene to clear the way for the bus to return to the hotel. But the attempt was unsuccessful.
Fans crowded the team bus back to the hotel.
Even some of the team's players, including Pratama Arhan, got out of the car to apologize to the fans and asked them to clear the way. However, the number of fans was increasing, making this option impossible. In the end, the whole team agreed to move slowly. At 10:20 p.m., the car carrying U22 Indonesia arrived at the hotel.
The Indonesian U22 team stayed in Jakarta to attend a celebration organized by the Indonesian Ministry of Youth and Sports . Minister Dito Ariotedjo expressed his gratitude for the Indonesian U22 team's achievements at the 32nd SEA Games. After the celebration, the players will parade through the streets of the capital city of Jakarta.
" The parade is our tribute to the Indonesian U22 players competing at the 2023 SEA Games in Cambodia ," said Dito Ariotedjo.
