In this Serie A matchup, Cruzeiro EC was disappointed on home grounds as they were beaten by Cuiaba EC 1-0 on 22nd May 2023. Statistics of the game indicate that this was a hard-fought match, full of intensity and aggressive play.
Despite being on the back foot in terms of goals, Cruzeiro displayed a high level of aggressiveness, evident from the number of fouls they committed (18). This created numerous interruptions on the ball and could explain some of the difficulties they encountered in maintaining a steady flow in their play.
Despite securing the victory, Cuiaba narrowly edged out Cruzeiro in terms of fouls committed (19). This data, coupled with the 3 yellow cards given to the away team, imply a particularly aggressive style of play from Cuiaba. This could have been a tactical decision to disrupt the rhythm of Cruzeiro’s home game advantage.
Interestingly, the stats reveal a discrepancy in the number of corner kicks won by each side. Cruzeiro corners outnumbered the efforts of Cuiaba six to two. Accumulating such a high volume of corner kicks normally suggests offensive domination or at least supremacy in terms of ball possession and attacking threat. However, Cruzeiro failed to convert these set-pieces into goals, indicating a lack of effectiveness in their final third’s executions.
Offside infractions also played a significant role in this match. The home side was caught offside three times, hindering opportunities to level the scoreline. Cuiaba was flagged offside twice, suggesting they were pushing for more goals and potentially leaving themselves open to counter-attacks that luckily, for them, Cruzeiro couldn't exploit.
The only goal was netted by Cuiaba in the first half, just over half an hour into the game. This could have played a significant strategic role, allowing them to shift more defensively for the remainder of the match in a bid to maintain their slender lead.
Despite the hustle shown by both teams, this match appeared to be more of a defensive and tactical battle. Looking at the overall details and the strikingly similar statistics, one can conclude that it was Cuiabá EC's ability to make crucial plays in the critical first half that determined their success. On the other hand, Cruzeiro’s inability to utilize their corner chances effectively was one of the significant pitfalls in their offensive strategy.
In summary, both teams showed similar aggression, but Cuiaba's ability to convert early provided the one clear statistical difference that made them the winners on the day.
