The group doubted whether the tickets sold for the event would have covered their expenses for bring PSV to Indonesia."Holding the event at this time will be a big risk for us financially and we want to limit our losses for now," the promoter added."We apologise to all of the Indonesian fans, as this annulment will also revoke the young players' chance to play against world-class players."PSV are currently second in the Eredivisie, one point behind leaders AZ.
