FIFA ASEAN Cup: FIFA slash Indonesia-Thailand final prize money as Hong Kong seal Division 2 glory

FIFA slash Indonesia-Thailand final prize money by 35%

A broadcasting rights dispute has prompted FIFA to slash the Division 1 champions' prize money by 35%, reducing it from $1 million to $650,000. Indonesia are determined to banish their hoodoo against Thailand at the GBK Stadium, having suffered penalty shootout heartbreak (4-2) in both the 1997 and 2002 finals. Meanwhile, Indonesia forward Mitchell Baker leads the Golden Boot race with five goals.

Hong Kong seal Division 2 glory in front of 31,000 crowd

Hong Kong defeated Cambodia 2-0 at the Kai Tak Stadium to secure the Division 2 title and pocket a $300,000 windfall, watched by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and a 31,000-strong crowd. Matthew Orr opened the scoring in the 41st minute as Hong Kong dominated with 60% possession, before Everton Camargo sealed the 2-0 victory from the penalty spot in the 58th minute.
