UAE fear jetlag
The United Arab Emirates have dropped their fixture against Indonesia which was scheduled for Solo, and replaced it with a match against South Korea to be played in Singapore.
The UAE coach Bruno Metsu decided to play the last match against a country which is not very far from the training camp venue in Kuala Lumpur so that UAE players will not be exhausted or suffering from fatigue due to the long journey to Jakarta.
For this reason he preferred to play against South Korea instead of Indonesia.
Bless
It remains to be seen if Indonesia can rearrange a friendly at such short notice. Perhaps Kiribati are available?
