From these stats, we can clearly see that the match between CD Barranquilla FC and Real Santander CD on 04 March 2024 was a closely contested one, ending in a narrow 2-1 victory for the home side.

CD Barranquilla FC demonstrated a more aggressive approach throughout the game which is evidenced by a considerably high number of fouls at 23. On the other side, Real Santander CD committed only 17 fouls. Although this pushed Barranquilla FC more into the backfoot, the tactic seemed to work well for them as they managed to convert more of their opportunities into goals.

The home side was also more active offensively. They made five offsides tries compared to three of Santander CD's, showing that the forward line was consistently testing the offensive line of the opponent. It may have led to fewer chances but evidently one of the significant tactics contributing to their goals.

Shots on and off target was another clear differentiating factor. Barranquilla FC had 4 shots on target, compared to 7 of the away team but managed to capitalize on two of their attempts finding the back of the net by outperformance or perhaps poor defending by the opposition.

Conversely, Real Santander CD appears to have been less effective in turning their superior on-target shooting stake into goals. Possibly due to the excellent performance of the Barranquilla goalkeeper who made five pivotal saves, compared to Santander’s three.

Another deciding stat was the corner kicks. Barranquilla FC was rewarded with seven corners, more than double of Santander CD's figure which demonstrates a sustained pressure they exerted in the final third of the field.

In conclusion, while both the teams had their strengths, the aggressive playstyle, higher number of corners, and better conversion rate led to the CD Barranquilla FC claiming the victory in this match. A clear indication of how, in football, executing your chances efficiently while keeping a robust defensive line can be the key to success.
