In a one-sided affair on March 26, the Brisbane Roar (Youth) showcased their youth spirit, claiming a close 1-0 victory against a well-organized Olympic FC side in the NPL Queensland competition.

The match's score line would not accurately portray the kind of performance that Brisbane Roar (Youth) had exhibited. They had a total of 5 corner kicks throughout the match compared to the Olympic FC's 3. This showed that the Roar was more assertive and dominated the ball in the attacking territory of the opposition. One such corner kick was perfectly executed leading to the only match goal in the 26th minute of the first half.

Despite Roar's dominance, the game was a display of intensive physical play. Brisbane Roar (Youth) collected four yellow cards, one at 29:14, another at 36:57 during the first half, and two more at 78:35 and 85:51 in the second half. This shows an element of indiscipline and aggressive play from the home side, which they might need to regulate in their future matches.

On the other end, Olympic FC managed just a single yellow card in the first half at 30:19, which reflects a more disciplined approach to the game. However, this cautious play may have cost them by reducing their aggressiveness in their attempts to equalize.

There is no doubt that Brisbane Roar (Youth)'s early goal influenced the manner of play, giving them the confidence and motivation to preserve their slim lead. The match's outcome would also be significantly credited to the team's defence line and the goalkeeper, who despite the four fouls, managed to keep a clean sheet proving decisive in the end result.

In conclusion, Brisbane Roar (Youth)'s assertive play and early goal made the day for them despite aggressive play, which culminated into four yellow cards. Meanwhile, Olympic FC's discipline did not pay off this time around, despite a fairly good defensive performance. It's an opportunity for them to rethink their strategies particularly when reflecting on their lacklustre attacking force as exhibited by the lesser corner kicks and absence of goals.
