This coverage comes from the CONCACAF Gold Cup match held on June 27, 2023, between Costa Rica and Panama. Panama outshone Costa Rica with a 2-1 victory. A deeper look at the statistics paints a picture of the strategies implemented by both teams and key turning points in the game.

Two major incidents that shaped the match trajectory were Panama's two goals, scored at 23:18 of the first half and 68:14 of the second half, while Costa Rica managed only one goal at 91:22 of the second half. Panama's early lead placed pressure on Costa Rica that seemed to impact their performance, as indicated by the statistical data.

The number of corner kicks is a reliable indicator of the amount of pressure a team is putting on their opponent. In this match, Panama led with 5 corner kicks compared to Costa Rica's 1. This shows that Panama was more assertive in offense, thereby maximizing their control over the match.

Yellow cards are a critical statistic from a disciplinary perspective. Costa Rica received 2 yellow cards during the game, with the first being in the 14:26 of the first half and the second at 84:24 of the second. While Panama, on the other hand, only received 1 yellow card at 44:31 of the first half. This suggests a slight disparity in discipline between the teams, with Costa Rica seeming somewhat more reckless in their play.

One interesting outlier of the match is the offside ratio: Costa Rica was flagged offside once while Panama maintained a clean sheet in this respect. Not being flagged offside shows Panama's discipline in timing their runs and staying onside, potentially contributing to their victory.

In conclusion, the game was majorly dictated by Panama owing to their early lead, more offensive pressure as shown by corner kick statistics, and disciplined play concerning offsides and fouls. Costa Rica, on the other hand, faced increased pressure after Panama's early goal and this was further reflected in their disciplinary record. This goes to show that timing, discipline, and pressure can greatly influence a match's outcome. The data suggests that Panama outperformed Costa Rica on these fronts, which in turn led them to victory.
