When the match was getting intense, a player from Ueang Fah A suddenly kicked his opponent. This player's action immediately earned him a red card from referee Siwakorn Singthana, who sent him off the field. When he realized he was being sent off, the player immediately rushed to hit the referee. The incident shocked everyone present on the field.

Players from both teams had to intervene. It is worth mentioning that this match was broadcast live on several social media platforms. These platforms had to immediately cut off the live broadcast to avoid spreading the ugly behavior to students and children.

Referee Siwakorn Singthana is a referee in the Thai-League 3 (a professional football league system in Thailand). Immediately after the incident, Mr. Siwakorn Singthana was taken for a medical examination and reported to the police.

This incident once again raises concerns about the increasingly ugly behavior appearing on Thai football fields today. There have been many cases of players attacking referees, Thai players are increasingly using tricks when playing, and it is increasingly difficult to control their behavior on the field.

One of the most famous fights involving Thai football in recent years was the incident where a series of Thai players fought with Indonesian players, in the final match of the 32nd SEA Games, which took place in May 2023, at the Olympic Stadium in Phnom Penh (Cambodia).
