only 2 weeks ago, demanding that israel not be allowed to, but it's a mean it was all triggered by the governor of bali asking the government not to invite israel al, to their bali stadium, indonesia and israel al, do not have formal diplomatic allegiance and support for the palestinian cause and the world's most populous muslim enjoy. the nation runs high. experts now fear that the clash of politics and sport has jeopardized the entire countries reputation as host to big events. gallagher is that isn't believe that i think there's also a risk for international organizations or if there are international events at it. and then we bid to become the host there be the because the international community will be taking notes on this issue. but my fell out of the i don't know how indonesia can rescue its image, metallic,

i think the matter these young players now have to pay the price. the automatic qualifying spot as horse mission is gone. officials have already warned that losing the tournament will cost a country. hundreds of millions of euros. and fever is traveling further sanctions, potentially even excluding indonesia from the 2026 world cup qualifiers that begin in october. and gentlemen are for more context on this is d. w correspondent, rebecca now bit of hulu format jakarta bureau. rebecca, what is the mood right now in indian indonesia? yes, it's been a pretty gloomy day for indonesia. this has been a dream not only for the football team, but also for all indonesian to be able to participate in the world cup, but sat lee. that dream has to be gone and not only for the football

the impact of this decision on indonesia as participation, specifically in the under 20 football world cup and in a larger sense on football. in general. yes, the reason the indonesian football team are able to join those under 20 world cop is because we have that opportunity to be the host of the world cup and by us not becoming the host of this year's world cup. it means that the indonesian team will not be able to participate in this world cup as well. and for the national football, we are still waiting for the fevers decision whether or not we will be given any sanction on this. but if so, probably harm to the national football team back from any far tournaments. and we
