In a highly competitive NPL Western Australia match, we saw Perth Glory (Youth) pull off a conclusive 4-1 win over home side Cockburn City SC on 12th August 2023. The strategic game plan and a vibrant offensive display by Perth Glory (Youth) got them four goals, while Cockburn City SC struggled with one goal in the match.

Cockburn City SC set the ball rolling with an early goal in the first half at 00:12:07, creating a promising start. Unfortunately, that was the end of their goal-scoring run for the match. In contrast, Perth Glory (Youth) made a significant comeback with an equalising goal in the first half at 00:36:16. They went on to net an additional three goals in the second half, establishing their complete dominance in the match.

One of the key factors that undoubtedly impacted the game's outcome was the three yellow cards against Cockburn City SC, indicating a possible lapse in the team's discipline. A red card at a later stage further depleted the home team, having a tangible effect on their gameplay. On the other hand, the flawless discipline record from Perth Glory (Youth), with zero yellow or red cards, accentuated a difference in composure and discipline between the two teams.

Equally critical to the outcome was the effectiveness of the teams in exploiting set-pieces. While Cockburn City SC had 4 corner kicks, Perth Glory (Youth) edged them with 5. Regrettably, for Cockburn, these set-piece opportunities did not translate into additional goals.

Despite the home side's strategic efforts, they failed to penetrate Perth's defence and were caught offsides none throughout the match. Perth Glory (Youth), although caught offside once, did not let it hamper their match rhythm, moving the ball confidently and capitalising on the chances presented.

Overall, the match outcomes were heavily influenced by Perth Glory (Youth)'s offensive dominance, the disciplined act and effective use of set-pieces. The lack of discipline and inability to convert corners into goals undermined Cockburn City SC's efforts, and at today’s match, the better team indeed left the field as winners.
