In the Primera Division match held on 17th September 2023, The Penya Encarnada managed to secure a victory against CF Esperanca, with a scoreline of 1-0. Regardless of having close competition, with ample opportunities presented to both the teams, Penya Encarnada undeniably demonstrated better goal-setting skills and dominance over the ball.

An essential factor contributing to Penya Encarnada's win was the successful first-half goal at the 18th minute marking the only goal in the match. The timing of the goal, relatively early in the match, set the tone for the rest of the game and likely led to an increase in the defensive play from the team to maintain their lead.

In terms of fouls, Penya Encarnada encountered only one yellow card in the first half at the 14-minute mark. Contrastingly, CF Esperanca encountered double the foul trouble, with two yellow cards shown in the 57th and 67th minutes of the second half. This disciplinary disparity might have affected CF Esperanca's agility on the field, hampered their attacking force and allowed Penya Encarnada to further keep the lead.

Set pieces also seemed to play a significant role in the match outcome. Penya Encarnada capitalized on the corners, tallying a total of nine corner kicks as against the four corners awarded to CF Esperanca. This superiority in corner kicks likely gave Penya Encarnada additional opportunities to break through CF Esperanca's defense and maintain possession of the ball.

As evident from the offsides count, both teams played with caution, with Penya Encarnada recorded three offsides and CF Esperanca two offsides. While it didn't make a marked impact on the game's outcome, these off-sides suggest both teams were ambitious about pressing forward, and such high intensity may have been a contributing factor to CF Esperanca's foul troubles.

In conclusion, the winning factors for Penya Encarnada mainly hinged upon a relatively early first-half goal, fewer disciplinary concerns comparing to CF Esperanca, and commendable utilization of set pieces. While CF Esperanca competed stoutly, they may have to improve their discipline on the field and efficiency off any corner kicks in future matches.
