Rivalries

Persiraja used to have a rivalry with fellow Aceh club, PSAP Sigli. This derby is usually called as the "Classic Aceh Derby". Their matches were always in hot atmosphere.[7][8] One most tragic incident occurred in 2014, when PSAP Sigli goalkeeper, Agus Rahman, made a harsh tackle on Persiraja striker, Akli Fairuz. Akli suffered bladder leakage and, a few days after the match, passed away from his internal injuries due to that tackle.[9] Although Agus Rahman said that he never intended to harm Akli, and asked for a forgiveness from Akli's family,[10] he received a year suspension given by PSSI.[11] Nowadays, since Persiraja and PSAP Sigli are no longer in the same league level, the rivalry has been coolen down. In addition, Persiraja have also rivalry with another Aceh club, PSBL Langsa.[12][13]
