Jamie Young could miss Sunday's semi-final.

If not,it appears 19-year-old Bilic will have to don the gloves in front of a hostile AAMI Park crowd.

Bilic has not played a single minute of A-League football and made his senior debut when he was sent on for Young in the 38th minute.

The Asian Football Confederation have been approached for comment on the incident involving Young,with the Roar due to file an official complaint.

The AFC will be expected to come down hard on the Thai Premier League champions if old or faulty equipment is found to be the cause of a serious injury.

Brisbane Roar managing director Mark Kingsman tweeted:"How can this be allowed in our elite club competition?"

Coach John Aloisi rotated his squad heavily with Young,Thomas Broich,Nick D'Agostino and Luke DeVere the only starters for Brisbane who were involved in Friday's elimination final win against Western Sydney.

Only D'Agostino played the full 90 minutes,which the Roar grew into after a meek start.
