In the recent game of the Cup competition, HSK Zrinjski Mostar managed to secure a narrow victory against the home team, FK Velez Mostar. The game was held on the 17th of May 2023, with a score of 1-0, favoring Zrinjski Mostar.

The decisive goal came early in the second half, precisely 51 minutes into the game. This sole goal placed considerable pressure on Velez Mostar to equalize, which did not occur during the course of the match.

Meanwhile, the physicality of the game was quite evident as both teams had equal numbers of fouls and yellow cards. Both Velez Mostar and Zrinjski Mostar committed three fouls each and received three yellow cards each. This undoubtedly intensified the match's atmosphere, demonstrating the inherent competitiveness between the two sides.

However, where the match truly started to signal a divide was in the execution of corner kicks. Zrinjski Mostar capitalized significantly on these opportunities by tallying seven corner kicks compared to Velez Mostar’s two. Although not all these corner kicks resulted directly in goals, it indicated the dominance Zrinjski Mostar held in the offensive side of the game, continually pressuring the home team's defense.

While Velez Mostar put up a determined fight, evident from the yellow cards received during the dying minutes of the match, this level of intensity was not enough to result in a goal. The home team's defense was arguably well-executed, given Zrinjski Mostar only managed to score one goal despite their numerous corner attempts. However, their offense proved to be less effective, and they failed to convert their opportunities into a score.

In conclusion, Zrinjski Mostar's victory came down to capitalizing on their one scored opportunity early in the second half, as well as their upper-hand in initiating more corner kicks, thereby keeping Velez Mostar continually on the defensive. Even though both sides were equal in fouls and yellow cards, indicating a similar level of aggression and intensity, it was Zrinjski Mostar who managed their opportunities better, leading to their victory.
