The match was led by Andri Novendra.
Bandung United's disappointment with the referee has occurred since the first half, even in the second half the match was stopped because the referee issued a controversial decision, including giving a red card to Saiful in the 51st minute and Rizki Arohman in the 61st minute. The climax, towards the end of the game in 88 minutes, when Bandung United goalkeeper, Satrio Azhar was given a red card. Not only the goalkeeper, one other player Andri Febriansyah was also sent off, so there were four red cards given by the referee. The player who became an impromptu goalkeeper, Arsan Makarin could actually block Ikhsan Ilham's penalty kick, but quickly Ikhsan grabbed the ball and put it into the goal.
Bandung United players, seemed to give a gesture of applause to the opposing players who managed to break into the goal while holding Farmel advantage to 2–0. Not long ago, Farmel again attacked, but as a form of disappointment to the referee who led the match, Bandung United players seem to let the opposing player's kickball into the net. So, the score changed to 3–0. When the final whistle sounded, the Bandung United officials and players seemed to give applause to the referee as a form of disappointment.
Previously, several teams that competed with Farmel felt aggrieved by the referee's decisions which were considered unreasonable.

Then PSBL Langsa also protested the referee's decision which made his team lose 4–1 to Farmel at the AAL Jala Krida Stadium on 18 February 2022, In this match, the referee's leadership was considered detrimental to the Langsa PSBL team, such as the penalty obtained by Farmel and other decisions. Even the coach of PSBL Langsa, Azhar satirized the match kit and Farmel FC in an upload on his Instagram account by mentioning "Terimakasih mafia, terimakasih oknum. Kalian mengajarkan anak-anak pesepakbola Aceh untuk tidak percaya lagi dengan sepakbola Indonesia" which means "Thank you mafia, thank you people. You teach the children of Aceh footballers not to believe in Indonesian football anymore".
In the round of 16 match of the Liga 3 season 2021–22 on 6 March 2022, Farmel again benefited from the controversial decision of the referee, for example, when Persikota players who stood in an onside position which was then judged by the referee as offside and a controversy penalty given by the referee to Farmel.
