The Belarusian Cup match between FC BATE Borisov and Torpedo-BelAZ Zhodino on 28 July 2024 resulted in a 2-0 victory for the away side. The match's outset heavily favored Torpedo-BelAZ, who secured an early lead at the 42:28 mark of the first half. This early goal positioned them advantageously and forced BATE to play catch-up from the outset.

In terms of goal-scoring opportunities, BATE managed to secure four corner kicks compared to Torpedo-BelAZ's single corner. Despite this advantage in set-pieces, BATE failed to capitalize on these opportunities, demonstrating a lack of efficacy in converting set-pieces into meaningful chances. Torpedo-BelAZ’s more streamlined approach paid dividends; they were clinical in front of goal, as seen with their efficient conversion rate.

FC BATE Borisov's low offensive impact was evident, as they had no offsides compared to Torpedo-BelAZ’s two. This statistic highlights BATE’s lack of aggressive play and forward movements, unlike their rivals who were caught offside twice, suggesting a more adventurous attacking strategy. Moreover, Torpedo-BelAZ capitalized on their few chances with two goals, underscoring their efficiency and incisiveness in the attacking third.

Both teams displayed disciplined defensive performances overall, reflected by a single yellow card apiece and no red cards. However, the timing of these cards is telling; Torpedo-BelAZ's yellow card in the first half had minimal impact, whereas BATE's yellow card occurred in the second half, likely impacting their aggressive attempt at a comeback after conceding a second goal at 56:49.

Ultimately, Torpedo-BelAZ's ability to score crucial, timely goals was the defining factor of the game. FC BATE Borisov's inefficacy in converting corner kicks and creating sufficient forward pressure, highlighted by the offsides statistic, alongside an early deficit, culminated in their defeat. Torpedo-BelAZ's disciplined approach and efficient attacking made them deserved winners of this encounter.
