In the Copa Chile match up between CD Marcos Trincado and Union Espanola, more of the match's decisive factors fell in favor of the home side, which is steadily illustrated by the 2-1 scoreline in their favor.

Despite Union Espanola having more shots on target (5), CD Marcos Trincado were able to convert their chances at a higher efficiency with 2 goals from their 4 shots on target. This does highlight the higher efficiency of CD Marcos Trincado in front of goals. However, Union Espanola's goalkeeping should also be questioned given the save-capture ratio. They managed only 2 saves from a total of 4 shots on target, a 50% save rate that could be improved upon going forward.

Defensively, it seems CD Marcos Trincado were more at ease with their goalkeeper making 4 saves and hence reducing the number of conceded goals. A significant difference arose in the number of fouls committed, with CD Marcos Trincado committing 16 fouls compared to Union Espanola's 9. This gives a pointer towards CD Marcos Trincado's more aggressive and perhaps riskier defensive approach, but it didn't cost them in this particular match given that no yellow or red cards were issued.

Interestingly, CD Marcos Trincado managed to produce 8 corner kicks - a large number pointing to their domination of territory and possession - against Union Espanola's 5.

Both teams utilized all 3 of their allowed substitutes. This reflects an active approach from both teams’ management, in trying to utilize their bench strength to impact the game.

In conclusion, the key vectors influencing the outcome of this match were the clinical finishing by CD Marcos Trincado along with their aggressive but effective defensive strategy. Despite being slightly outshot, their efficient use of possession leading to a higher number of corners certainly gave them an edge. Union Espanola, while matching in many parameters, were let down by their less secure goalkeeping and lesser territorial dominion as seen by fewer corners.
