JAKARTA: Malaysia and Indonesia kicked off the second leg of the AFF Suzuki Cup final on Wednesday.
Hours before the kick off, the tense atmosphere could be felt outside The Sultan hotel where the Malaysian football team is staying.
It has been tense ever since the team arrived Monday and since Malaysia beat the Indonesians 3-0 in Sunday's AFF Suzuki Cup final first leg at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil.
In fact, the Malaysians have a bird's eye view of the going-ons outside the hotel, a five-minute drive from the Gelora Bung Karno stadium, venue of the much-awaited second leg.
Fans anxiously waiting for the game to start. Since morning, red-shirted Indonesian fans began to arrive in large numbers at the stadium.
Some have been camping there the whole night. The car horns have been blaring most of the day and traffic is starting to come to a standstill.
The TV stations started their live coverage early by conducting on-the-spot interviews and game assessment from the fans at the stadium.
