In the MTN Elite One match that took place on April 5th, 2024, Avion Academy FC hosted PWD Bamenda. Ultimately, the match resulted in a goalless draw with both defenses standing firm and no team managing to find the back of the net.

Throughout the 90 minutes, both sides exhibited high levels of discipline and organization. Looking at the statistics from the match, it's evident each team had a similar level of aggression with Avion Academy FC committing 21 fouls and Bamenda registering 20. This implies that the match was closely contested with both teams fighting for possession and not giving room for the opponent to easily break through, leading to the high number of fouls.

However, what is particularly interesting is the distribution of these fouls over the course of the game. Avion Academy received their first yellow card just 45 minutes into the game, while PWD Bamenda received their first in the 47th minute of the second half. This can suggest that the latter team was more disciplined in the first half, or possibly that the officiating was stricter in the second half.

Turning our attention to the battled dominance, we can observe PWD Bamenda had a stronger offensive performance, earning a total of 9 corner kicks, against the 4 corners obtained by Avion Academy FC. In spite of this, the effectiveness of these set pieces seemed to be low for both sides, as there were no goals scored from corners.

A lack of clear cut chances could also be inferred as neither team was flagged offside frequently. The home team didn't go offside at all, while Bamenda was caught in the offside trap only twice. This statistic could be indicative of either a lack of aggressive forward play, or highly organized defense lines that kept the potential threats at bay.

The low score line does not come as a surprise. Neither team took any real dominance, which is reflected in the even distribution of fouls and yellow cards. While PWD Bamenda attempted to exert offensive pressure, as seen in their higher number of corner kicks, neither team had the winning edge or the ability to convert their efforts into goals on this particular day. The analysis suggests that both teams operated in a very tactical manner focusing on maintaining their defensive lines and trying to break the opponent's resistance via set pieces, rather than open play. However, the goalless draw indicates their lack of effectiveness in the final third of the pitch. These factors provided the basis of the match’s outcome.
