In the Mulan League women's football match played on 16th December 2023, Hualien came up against Taipei Xiongzan, where Taipei Xiongzan secured a narrow victory with a 1-0 win. Even though Hualien performed well in terms of initiating offensive moves as evidenced by their nine corner kicks, they could not convert those opportunities into goals.

The single instrumental goal in the match was scored by Taipei Xiongzan in the first half at 25 minutes and 2 seconds, setting the tone for the game early on. Despite this relatively early goal, Hualien was not able to retaliate and the first half strategy of Taipei paid off with no more goals scored by either team in the rest of the match.

Seemingly, Hualien had the superior edge when it comes to positional play as they forced nine corners, which drastically outnumbers the corners (0) forced by Taipei. However, their inefficiency in translating these corner kicks into goals came as a shortcoming. Additionally, the frequency with which Hualien gained possession in the enemy half and forced corners could be a testament to their dominance in terms of possession during the game.

However, one of the most interesting facets of this match was the lack of any disciplinary actions. No yellow or red cards were issued during this match, showing a fairly clean game from both sides. This is a rare occurrence, showcasing disciplined gameplay from both teams. Additionally, the offsides were incredibly low, with Hualien being caught offside just once in the whole match and Taipei not even once.

In conclusion, despite the aggressive offensive strategy adopted by Hualien, reflected by their substantial number of corner kicks, Taipei Xiongzan's early lead proved too challenging to overcome. Moving forward, Hualien will need to work on their finishing skills to maximize their offensive penetration. As for Taipei, their solid defensive line and strategy, which kept them from getting caught offside, were indeed the key factors in ensuring their victory. This match shows that disciplinary action plays a minimal role when compared to offensive and defensive strategies in the outcome of the game.
