This fascinating 1. HNL match held on 4th May 2024 saw HNK Šibenik emerging victorious against NK Jarun Zagreb, with a final score of 2-0. The tightly contested match showed key statistics and tactical approaches which significantly impacted the outcome.

Turning to Shot Conversion Rate (SCR), that is, the conversion of corner kicks and offsides into goals, Šibenik was the better performer. They converted their 15 corner kicks and 7 offsides to advantageous situations, resulting in their two vital goals in the second half. The timing of the goals - at 58:07 and 69:21, demonstrated a team that was adapt at exploiting opportunities after half-time, a factor not present in Jarun's strategy, who only managed 1 corner and 1 offside throughout the game.

Discipline-wise, both teams maintained a relatively good record with only one yellow card each, none of which escalated to a red card. Šibenik received their yellow card early into the second half, whereas Jarun acquired theirs at 59:32, post Šibenik's first goal. It shows that both teams were able to maintain a level of discipline under pressure.

In conclusion, Šibenik's ability to convert a higher number of corner kicks into goals, and their strategy to strike in the second half, were key decisive factors in their triumph over Jarun Zagreb. The lesson is clear - capitalising on such set-pieces, managing discipline under pressure, and importantly, having the tactical acumen to know when to strike are all key factors in achieving a favourable match outcome.
