In a riveting match marked significantly by discipline issues, Sampaio Correa FC came from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over EC Juventude RS on May 6, 2023. This Serie B clash was clearly delineated by the number of goals scored and the timing of those goals, even as other variables, such as corner kicks, offsides, fouls and cards, played lesser, but noteworthy roles in shaping the ultimate outcome.

EC Juventude RS drew first blood in the first half at 00:49:07. However, their lead was undone in the second half with Sampaio Correa FC scoring an equalizer at 00:58:30, followed by the winning goal at 01:16:53. In a span of just about 20 minutes, the fortunes were flipped in Sampaio Correa's favor, indicating a strong comeback performance from the home team.

Disciplinary issues seemed to hang heavy over this match, with both teams earning an almost equal number of yellow and red cards. Sampaio Correa FC earned 4 yellow cards, with two occurring in first half and two in the second half. EC Juventude RS also did not show great restraint, receiving 3 yellow cards, all of them in the second half. Both teams received a red card each, suggesting the intensity and competitiveness of the game.

Fouls were another crucial aspect of this game, with EC Juventude RS committing more than twice as many fouls as Sampaio Correa FC (18 against 8). Such a high fouling rate could highlight either a frenetic and overzealous defensive strategy or, simply, a lack of discipline from the away team, and it likely played a key role in Juventude's eventual defeat.

Interestingly, despite EC Juventude's more aggressive approach, which was indicated by their higher number of fouls and yellow cards, they dominated in terms of corner kicks, winning 4 against Sampaio Correa’s single corner. This might suggest that the away team did have some good offensive moves, but they couldn't translate them into more goals.

On the offsides front, Sampaio Correa FC accrued one, while EC Juventude RS maintained an accurate offensive line, recording no offsides for the entire match. This parameter, however, wasn’t particularly influential in deciding the match outcome.

In summary, Sampaio Correa FC’s comeback in the second half combined with the EC Juventude RS’s lack of discipline and failure to capitalize on offensive opportunities was essential in dictating the final 2-1 result.
