In the Challenger Pro League encounter on 15 September 2023, SV Zulte Waregem exhibited commendable team performance and pulled off a worthy victory over KRC Genk U23, with the scoreline at 4-2.

The distinctive statistics that laid the foundation for the match's outcome were the corners and discipline maintained by the teams. Despite soaking in the early pressure and conceding two goals in the first half, SV Zulte Waregem used their ability to change tactics, organise the defence, and attack proficiently via corners, securing 11 as compared to KRC Genk U23's 3.

The first half of the game saw an impressive comeback from KRC Genk U23, who after being a goal down as early as the 23rd minute, managed to compose themselves and score twice within a span of 6 minutes (from 38th minute to 43rd minute). This saw them leading 2-1 at half time.

However, the latter half of the game saw a decisive turning point as SV Zulte Waregem managed to claw their way back into the game. Once they equalised in the 54th minute, they successfully shifted the momentum in their favour. A significant factor in the match was the home team's lack of composure evident in the receiving of two yellow cards within a minute during the second half (from 01:26:57 to 01:27:44) which cost them a player due to a red card subsequently.

This undoubtedly impacted the home team’s structural balance and weakened their defence, which allowed SV Zulte Waregem to exploit space and score the crucial third goal in the final phase of the match (01:29:42), thus seizing the advantage.

In conclusion, even though both teams showed promising attributes such as composure in front of the goal, offensive efficiency, and resilience, SV Zulte Waregem's superior manipulation of set-pieces and better discipline on-field turned the tide in their favour. KRC Genk U23, on the other hand, would need to introspect and focus on their discipline in crucial phases to avoid such lapses in their upcoming matches.
