In the Queensland Premier League 1 match held on 14th May 2023, Surfers Paradise Apollo SC faced off against Logan Lightning FC, wherein the match ended in a 2-2 draw.

Though both the teams scored two goals each, the factors contributing to this outcome differed distinctly.

In the first half, Surfers Paradise Apollo SC came off to a strong start with two impressive goals at the 17:50 mark and the 36:13 mark. However, their momentum did not continue into the second half, and they couldn't manage to extend their lead.

Despite being put on the back foot in the first half, Logan Lightning FC staged a notable comeback in the second half. Capitalizing on the opportunities presented to them, they scored two goals at the 48:51 mark and 59:20 mark.

The number of yellow cards is an important highlight in this match, reflecting the intensity and physicality of the game. Surfers Paradise Apollo SC received four yellow cards, a significant rise after halftime, with three out of their four yellow cards being awarded in the second half, which ultimately resulted in a red card. This would have put them at a disadvantage, playing with a man down for part of the match. Logan Lightning FC, undignified, committed fouls leading to five yellow cards, showing a similar trend with most of their yellow cards being shown in the second half.

It's interesting to note that despite having the same number of offsides (two each), Surfers Paradise Apollo SC did not have any corner kicks compared to Logan Lightning FC who had four. This could suggest a difference in offensive strategy, with Logan Lightning FC showing more aggression in their attempts to breach the opposition's defence.

Hence, while initial goals gave Surfers Paradise Apollo SC an early lead, Logan Lightning FC's resilient comeback in the second half, coupled with Surfers Paradise Apollo SC's disciplinary issues mounting up to a red card certainly affected the game dynamics drastically, causing the match to end in a draw.
