In the second half, the intensity seemed to breach the boundaries of the acceptable limit, with both teams picking up yellow cards – FC Bekasi City's infraction happening at the 48th minute and Malut United FC earning two, at 53rd and 73rd minutes. These events may have affected their tactical decisions, as they may have turned more cautious to avoid any further cards.
