This was a thrilling AFC Cup match that took place on 11th December 2023 at 16:00 EEST, between Al Kahraba and Al Ittihad Aleppo. Al Kahraba, playing home, exhibited a dominant performance, beating Al Ittihad Aleppo 3-1.

Key to the match were the goals scored by the home team in the second half, effectively defining the outcome. Al Kahraba opened the scoring early at 01:20:18, with their second goal following just two minutes later at 01:18:25, creating significant pressure on the away team. Their third goal at 01:29:48 sealed their victory, even though Al Ittihad Aleppo managed to claw one back at 01:34:25.

When focusing on set-pieces, Al Kahraba proved superior, executing seven corner kicks compared to only three by Al Ittihad Aleppo. This reflects Al Kahraba's offensive dominance, also seen in the goal tally, and underscores their strategic execution of set pieces which controlled the tempo and dictated the rhythm of the game.

Discipline was somewhat of a mixed bag in the contest, with Al Kahraba receiving the only yellow card of the match in the second half at 01:36:18, yet despite this, it did not seem to impact their overall play or the final outcome.

Altogether, Al Kahraba's impressive scoring and efficient use of set-pieces contributed greatly to their victory. Meanwhile, Al Ittihad Aleppo's struggle to seize chances from corner kicks and to penetrate their opponents' defence cost them dearly. Despite having a game without any yellow cards, their defensive frailties were evident.

This match was a clear indication of Al Kahraba's resilience and offensive prowess that ultimately ensured their victory. Al Ittihad Aleppo on the other hand, may need to go back to the drawing board to reassess their defensive tactics and set-piece strategies.
