The fans of Arema FC stormed the pitch at a stadium in the eastern city of Malang after their team lost 3-2 to Persebaya Surabaya on Saturday night, Indonesian police said in a statement.
According to local sources, about 180 people, who were injured in the crush, were taken to nearby hospitals for treatment.
The officials said that the number of spectators exceeded the stadium's capacity by around 4,000 people.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo has ordered that all matches in the country's top league must be stopped until an investigation has been concluded.
The incident is the deadliest football-related disaster in Asia, as well as the second-deadliest worldwide. (ILKHA)
