Apart from the results of the game, the actions of some Johor fans before the game were under fire. Johor fans fired large firecrackers around the Pohang team's accommodation throughout the early morning of the game.
According to Pohang club officials, Johor fans suddenly began to set off firecrackers in a vacant lot in front of an accommodation in Johor, Malaysia, where the Pohang team is staying at around 11 p.m. local time on the 17th. It was a series of fireworks for businesses that are common in amusement parks. The untimely fireworks, which were expected to end in one or two, continued until late dawn.
Five vehicles went around the accommodation and fired fireworks from place to place every 15 minutes. According to a Pohang employee running out of the accommodation and checking with both eyes, the fan group moved in groups of three. One drove, one lit a fire, and one threw a firecracker. Inside the team, it was like watching a firework festival in Yeouido', It wasn't even a mess.' was the response.
Pohang, which was in an absurd situation, reported it to the police through the hotel front desk, and local police were dispatched. However, the police only talked with the fans who were believed to be the culprits, and did not actively restrain them. A Pohang official explained that firecrackers have exploded since the police left the scene.

Some team officials, including Pohang coach Park Tae-ha, were reportedly surprised by the roar outside the accommodation and couldn't sleep until late at dawn. An official from Pohang said at the time "When our staff asked the locals if this had happened near their accommodation in the past, there was no such thing." I don't understand why we did this when we came. I'm going to have a conversation with the game supervisor at the stadium.
Coach Park said after the game, `I want to talk about what happened last night. Firecrackers exploded overnight near our team's lodging, making it difficult for many players to rest. It can't be an excuse for today's results, but nothing that hasn't been fair-played off the field should happen."
Johor, who was not disciplined by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), failed to overcome the Buriram 'Thailand 1st round' and was eliminated. For Buriram, Korean defender Ko Myung-seok and Kim Min-hyuk played as starters and replacements, respectively, supporting the team's scoreless victory.
