In the Campeonato Paulista A2, bettors witnessed a stellar performance by XV de Piracicaba SP as they secured a 3-1 victory over EC Noroeste at 22:00 EEST on January 14, 2023.

To start, the away team showed devastating attacking efficiency. They scored three goals from their seven corner kicks, significantly higher than the home team's efficiency from corners, who managed only one goal from their three corners. This manifested early on as XV de Piracicaba SP managed to net the first two goals of the evening within the first 25 minutes of the first half.

Goal-scoring aside, XV de Piracicaba SP also played a clean game. They avoided yellow cards entirely, indicating disciplined play and minimizing potential momentum swings that could have come from penalties. On the contrary, the home team, EC Noroeste, picked up two yellow cards, one in each half, which may have further disrupted their rhythm, possibly contributing to their inability to keep up with their opponents on the scoreboard.

The home side's first blatant misstep was a yellow card given at the 31st minute, soon after which, the away side scored their second goal. This seems to demonstrate that EC Noroeste were left off-balance after disciplinary issues.

As for the offsides, both teams had an equal number of 1 each, suggesting both were actively trying to penetrate the opposition's defense but were generally well-matched in this area.

One goal that EC Noroeste did manage to score came relatively late in the game, at the 82nd minute, when they were already trailing by three. This consolation goal did not have a significant impact on the outcome, but it might have been a small moral boost for the home team, suggesting a never-give-up spirit.

In conclusion, the match outcome was heavily influenced by XV de Piracicaba’s early and effective exploitation of corner kicks and their disciplined, cardless display. EC Noroeste, in contrast, was hampered by receiving two yellow cards and their corner kick execution was lacking. As a keen follower or bettor, these elements of discipline, set-piece proficiency, and timing of goals should be key areas to watch in future games.
