In the Primera B showdown between CA Douglas Haig and CA San Miguel on 12th December 2023, both teams displayed commendable defensive skills, leaving the game scoreless at the final whistle.

What's striking about the match was the low number of offensive opportunities, with CA Douglas Haig having only one corner kick to their name and CA San Miguel executing only four corner kicks.

Despite this, it's worth noting CA San Miguel demonstrated a slightly aggressive approach compared to CA Douglas Haig, as evidenced by their higher number of corner kicks.

On disciplinary actions, CA Douglas Haig was given two yellow cards while the away team, CA San Miguel, received one. One potential influencing factor in the outcome of the match could have been the timing of these cards. CA Douglas Haig was awarded their cards quite early with the first one at second half's 00:50:54 and the second one at 01:09:44. This early strictness from the referee could have made the home team more cautious and defensive subsequently impacting their offensive strategies.

However, both teams would have benefitted from being more clinical in their attacking phases of play to exploit any corner kicks or free plays more effectively. The caution induced by the early yellow cards, particularly in the case of the home team, also had considerable influence on the overall tactics and game outcome. Expect both teams to refine their attacking strategies for upcoming matches while maintaining their defensive posture.
