In the First League matchup that took place on 26 April 2023, FC Slovan Liberec triumphed over FC Hradec Kralove with a 2-1 scoreline. This match saw FC Slovan Liberec strive through cohesion and sharp shooting accuracy, while FC Hradec Kralove struggled to convert their chances into goals, despite having a fair share of game control.

While FC Hradec Kralove had more corner kicks (9) compared to FC Slovan Liberec (5), they weren't able to utilize this significant advantage. This lack of capitalization on set pieces clearly had a significant impact on the match's outcome. Converting corner kicks into goals is a key element of securing victory in football and it seems FC Hradec Kralove might need to work on their execution in this regard.

Despite having the same amount of fouls (11 each), FC Hradec Kralove was handed two yellow cards during the second half of the match. Contrary, FC Slovan Liberec kept their cool and didn't receive any cards throughout the game. This factor may have played some role in the final result, as it disrupts the flow of the game and has a psychological effect on the players.

Interestingly, FC Slovan Liberec were flagged offside twice indicating they were pressing steadily, which eventually led to two goals early and late in the second half respectively. On the other hand, the home team stayed more disciplined in this aspect, not catching any offside flag during the match, but didn't manage to utilize the possession in their favor.

Although FC Hradec Kralove pulled one back late in the game making an attempt at a comeback, it was too late due to FC Slovan Liberec's time management and strong defensive performance in the closing minutes.

Overall, the match was strongly decided by FC Hradec Kralove's inability to capitalize on their corner kick advantage, and their lack of discipline, resulting in yellow cards, seem to have disrupted their gameplay, allowing FC Slovan Liberec to take an edge despite being offside twice. FC Slovan Liberec, on the other hand, demonstrated superior teamwork and offensive tactics, leading to a crucial win in this First League matchup.
