The 2022 AFF Championship (officially AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2022 due to sponsorship reasons) was the 14th edition of the AFF Championship, the football championship of nations affiliated to the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) and was the 1st edition under the name AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup.

The final tournament ran from 20 December 2022 to 16 January 2023.

Thailand were the defending champions, and won the tournament by a 3–2 aggregate score in the two-legged final against Vietnam to secure their seventh title.[1] Alexandré Pölking, became the 4th coach to win multiple titles, the first being on the 2020 edition.[2]

Format

The AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2022 followed the 2018 format, a change from the 2020 format with a centralised venue due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Southeast Asia.

In the current format, the nine highest-ranked teams automatically qualified with the 10th and 11th ranked teams playing in a two-legged qualifier. The 10 teams were split in two groups of five and play a round-robin system, with each team playing two home and two away fixtures.[3] Away goals rule was applied, but not in extra-time.

A draw was made to determine where the teams play while the format of the knockout round remained unchanged.

Qualification

See main article: 2022 AFF Championship qualification. Nine teams automatically qualified to the AFF Championship final tournament; they were separated into their respective pots based on their performance in the last two editions.

Brunei and Timor-Leste, the two lowest-ranked teams, played a two-legged tie to determine the 10th and final qualifier in November 2022, with Brunei hosting both legs due to Timor-Leste lacking a FIFA-standard venue. Brunei secured qualification, and their second appearance in the tournament after 26 years, by defeating Timor-Leste 6–3 on aggregrate.

Australia, a member since 2013, still decided not to debut at the tournament.

    Incidents and controversies

    The Group B match between Malaysia and Vietnam was marred by controversy, when Japanese referee Ryuji Sato who officiated the match gave a sudden controversial decision to award a penalty to Vietnam following a clash between Malaysian Azam Azmi and Vietnamese Đoàn Văn Hậu outside the penalty box which saw Azam being sent off, although a similar foul made by Văn Hậu towards Azam was ignored by the same referee.[35] [36] A complaint was made by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) towards the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) regarding the "perceived biasedness of Sato's officiating conduct" since a similar incident had also occurred before in another Malaysia-Vietnam encounter during 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification held in the United Arab Emirates.[37] [38] Through the letter, FAM requested for Sato to never be refereeing any matches involving Malaysia in the future.[39] Nevertheless, earlier before the controversial decision was made, Sato announced that 2022 would be the last year of his refereeing career when he announced his retirement by the end of the year.[40] [41] On 3 January 2023, AFF responded to FAM's letter by giving Azam a two-match ban, where he would miss Malaysia's last group stage match against Singapore and the semi-final first leg against Thailand. Azam also needed to pay a fine of US$1,000 that had to be settled in 30 days. The decisions were not appealable.[42]

    Before the Group A match between Indonesia and Thailand, a bus that transported the Thai team was disturbed and halted by Indonesian hooligans, which resulted in the bus needing to be escorted and the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium heavily guarded by the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), Public Order Agency (Satpol PP), firefighters and medical workers.[43] [44] During the match, home fans snatched a Thai flag, stepped and sat on it.[45] Following the incidents, the Football Association of Thailand (FAT) sent an official complaint to AFF with the Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI) expressing their apology and urging leaders and liaisons for supporters to further ensure that further incidents were prevented.[46] [47] FIFA later asked Indonesia to tighten their security for their upcoming match against Vietnam.[48]

    The attendance seats for the upcoming 1st leg semi-final match between Malaysia and Thailand in Bukit Jalil national stadium was only available for 59,000 seats, where 21,000 seats had to be vacant due to a world tour concert by Jay Chou on which the singer also held a concert at Singapore's National Stadium earlier, which forced Singapore to use Jalan Besar Stadium instead.[10] [11] [12] Originally due to be held on 3 January 2023, which fell on the same matchday between Malaysia and Singapore, however it got postponed to 15 January 2023.[49] The Malaysian government and FAM hardly tried to make negotiations and appeals, however a decision was not applied.[50] This stirred some Malaysian football fans to throw hate to the singer's social media account instead.[51] [52] On 7 January 2023, Chou finally stated that he could delay the concert, with a permission from FAM.[53] To relief the disappointments among many of the football fans who were unable to attend due to limited spots in the stadium caused by the issues, the Malaysian government in collaboration with local authorities erected 14 big screens in chosen locations nationwide.[54]

    Earlier before the 1st leg match between Malaysia and Thailand in Kuala Lumpur, the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) announced that a security measure which included body checks as well as bags and items checks would be carried out at each entrance and after entering the stadium grounds.[55] The police released a list of prohibited items that were not allowed to be brought into the stadium such as firecrackers, fireworks, flares, helmets, laser pens, sharp objects and alcoholic beverages. This included umbrellas or walking sticks, powerbanks, water bottles, lighters and cigarettes (including electronic cigarettes).[55] Despite this preventive measures, as seen during the match, some Malaysian fans were still able to smuggle prohibited items into the stadium when some of them were seen pointing green laser lights towards Thai defender Pansa Hemviboon as well as towards the left side face of referee of the match Kim Dae-yong, especially after the second goal of Malaysia from their centre-back player Dominic Tan was disallowed by the referee due to collision with the Thai player.[56] [57] [58]
