In the fiercely contested League One game played on 13th September 2023, Dandong Tengyue and Qingdao West Coast FC exhibited a thrilling display, each team securing 2 goals apiece. However, some statistical factors inclusive of possession, shots on/off target, goalkeeper saves, and set-pieces proved essential in determining the game's outcome.

Dandong Tengyue started strong, scoring the first goal just 7 minutes into the first half. However, their momentum seemed to wane as the away team, Qingdao West Coast FC, made a remarkable comeback with two goals scored at 28 and 42 minutes respectively. In what denotes either a lapse in concentration or defensive issues on Dandong's end, they received two yellow cards in the first half just prior to these two goals. This could have impacted Dandong's defensive organization leading to Qingdao West Coast FC’s goals.

Qingdao West Coast FC exhibited strong control in set-pieces throughout the game, as evidenced by their higher number of corner kicks (6 vs 3). These opportunities usually give a clear statistical advantage in terms of goal-scoring opportunities. Despite this, the team wasn't able to convert their dominance in this aspect into more goals, indicating shortcomings in their set-piece strategies.

Moving into the second half, Dandong Tengyue managed to equalize with a goal at the 93rd minute mark, showcasing a strong will to fight back. Qingdao West Coast FC received a yellow card towards the end of the game, likely disrupting their attempts at a late decider.

Statistically, another factor, potentially game-changing, was Dandong Tengyue's red card. It's usually detrimental to a team's likelihood of winning but credit must be given to the squad's resilience as they maintained the draw despite being one man down.

In a battle of attrition, both teams showcased promising performances, Dandong Tengyue exhibiting resilience despite disciplinary issues while Qingdao West Coast FC capitalized on their advantage in set-pieces. However, based on the data, it appears that fouls, discipline issues, and set-piece execution played a crucial role in determining the outcome of this match. Moving forward, both sides will likely review these areas closely as they could sway any close matches like this one in their favor. Conclusively, the 2-2 scoreline seems to be an accurate reflection of how evenly matched and hard-fought this contest was.
