In the CAF Confederation Cup tie on 20th August, Bahir Dar Kenema FC secured a thrilling 2-1 victory over Azam FC, displayed through the determined fightback after falling back in the second half.

Bahir Dar Kenema FC demonstrated an effective use of firepower upfront, securing their first goal within 20 minutes of the first half. This immediate attack on the opposing goal surely disrupted Azam FC's initial game plan and forced them to increase their defensiveness throughout the rest of the game. The brief lapse in coordination within Azam FC's defense might have allowed the second goal, which also came in the second half. Notably, Bahir Dar managed this victory without a single corner kick, an uncommon scenario that reveals their reliance on direct attacks rather than set-piece scenarios.

On the contrary, Azam FC was at a slight disadvantage, despite their possession and set-piece opportunities. Their only goal came well into the second half, proving their resilience, but they were unable to secure a win. Although they were granted four corner kicks, they were unable to capitalize on these opportunities.

Looking at discipline, Bahir Dar Kenema FC, received a yellow card, underplaying a bit of their defensive ferociousness, while Azam FC displayed fairly clean gameplay with zero yellow or red cards. The game also saw one offside from Azam FC, which could be attributed to their urgent attempts to equalize and possibly take the lead.

In terms of gameplay, both teams were proactive with their strategies. Bahir Dar seemed to focus on attacking threats and swiftly taking opportunities as they come. This, coupled with disciplined defensive play, enabled them to take home the victory. In contrast, Azam FC, despite a good fight, fell short due to what seems like an inability to convert their set-piece opportunities into goals.

In conclusion, Bahir Dar Kenema FC's astute attack and efficient use of direct play led to their victory in the match. Their well-timed goals, compact defense, and disciplined gameplay made them edge over Azam FC who despite their attempts, couldn't fully utilize their set-piece opportunities and were limited by the resilient Bahir Dar defense.
