In a highly competitive First League match that took place on the 18th of March 2023 between PFC Beroe Stara Zagora and CSKA 1948 Sofia, the latter team emerged victorious with a conclusive 3-1 scoreline. The key factors that played a significant role in CSKA Sofia's triumph were early goal scoring and successful keeping up the pressure, despite an increase in disciplinary actions in the form of yellow cards in the second half.

CSKA Sofia began the match aggressively, scoring their first goal merely seven seconds into the game. By the end of the first half, they had scored another goal, achieving a 2-0 lead at a staggering 34:30 minute time mark. Although Beroe was able to net a goal at 36:18, CSKA Sofia still held the advantage, leading 2-1 by halftime. To secure their victory, they scored one more time in the second half at 1:25:34, essentially ending any hopes of Beroe making a comeback.

Intriguingly, Beroe was handed two yellow cards in the first half at the 26:00 and the 32:59-minute marks. However, CSKA Sofia picked up much more disciplinary actions in the second half, with four yellow cards handed out at 56:05, 1:22:59, 1:23:16, and finally at 1:26:48. This rise in temper was managed by CSKA Sofia, ensuring adequate aggression without hindering performance, as no dismissal occurred.

In terms of corner kicks, both teams were fairly equal with Beroe Stara Zagora earning 4 corners and CSKA Sofia, 5. However, a more aggressive strategy from CSKA Sofia seemed to have paid off slightly better. A red card was shown to a PFC Beroe Stara Zagora player, further placing the home team at a disadvantage.

In conclusion, CSKA 1948 Sofia's early goals paired with sustained aggression, despite the accumulation of yellow cards, played a significant role in their deserved victory over PFC Beroe Stara Zagora. The balance of attacking prowess and discipline management was key, marking a comprehensive performance from the visiting side. For Beroe, the critical issues were a slow start to the game, lack of sufficient goal scoring, and discipline problems that eventually led to a player's dismissal. Statistics clearly indicate the nature of the match, with the result going in favor of the team that was better balanced in attack and discipline.
