The Indonesian National Police Regulation (Perkapolri) permits the use of firearms, tear gas and force, whereas this is actually prohibited by the FIFA Stadium Safety and Security Regulation (FSSSR). In this tragedy, protection rights abuses occurred. Then, the Indonesian Sport Act (ISA) 2022 does not yet regulate crucial matters, especially safety and security in sports competitions to protect players, referees, spectators/supporters and other match organizers. Research limitations/implications This study examines various regulations relating to sports, especially football matches with a focus on studies in Indonesia. Practical implications The results of this research help realize protection rights for football supporters and create designs regulation to protect protection rights for football supporters worldwide. Social implications The design regulation recommended in this study is useful for preventing disasters in football and protecting football supporters, players, referees and parties in matches from acts of violence.
