In the Primera Division match that took place on the 2nd of April 2023, Deportivo Saprissa bested LD Alajuelense 2-0, a result heavily influenced by the number of goals, corner kicks, fouls, and yellow cards.

Even though LD Alajuelense recorded a total of 10 corner kicks compared to Saprissa's 2, they failed to convert these opportunities into goals. This could be due to a lack of strategy or precision during set-pieces. Conversely, Saprissa displayed excellent defensive tactics, repelling the Alajuelense attacks and limiting the potential damage.

Furthermore, Alajuelense received 3 yellow cards, a clear indicator of the aggressive approach of their players. The repeated fouls, 21 in total, reflected a lack of discipline on the field which could have disrupted their focus and gameplay.

On the other side, Deportivo Saprissa managed to capitalize on Alajuelense's indiscipline by scoring twice. The first goal came late in the first half, at 44 minutes 31 seconds, startling Alajuelense's defense. Saprissa remained consistent with their performance in the second half by keeping their composure and scoring another goal at 78 minutes 6 seconds, further securing their lead.

Saprissa's efficiency was on display as they committed fewer fouls with a total of 15. With a single yellow card, they exhibited cleaner and fairer play which turned out to be beneficial. The strategic approach of Saprissa kept them ahead of Alajuelense throughout the match, causing fewer interruptions from fouls.

Despite having a high number of corner kicks and maintaining aggressive tactics, LD Alajuelense's inability to convert these into actual goals, combined with their high foul and yellow card count, had indeed a profound impact on the outcome of their match against Deportivo Saprissa. Meanwhile, Deportivo Saprissa took full advantage of their opportunities, shown by their fewer corner kicks, and exhibited better overall match conduct, reflected in their fewer fouls and yellow cards, proving that discipline and efficiency in capitalizing opportunities can be key determinants in the outcome of a football match.
