This match between FK Pardubice and FC Hradec Kralove in the First League was ultimately won by the home team FK Pardubice, courtesy of a solitary goal. However, this doesn't fully capture the statistics-based story that unraveled on the pitch during the match.

Both teams were evenly aggressive in corners, with FC Hradec Kralove even slightly edging Pardubice by one corner kick (8 vs 7). This led to several scoring chances, but the team's inability to capitalize on them runner-up is an issue that needs to be addressed.

Despite earning the only goal of the match, FK Pardubice had four yellow cards compared to FC Hradec Kralove's three, indicating a more aggressive defensive play. This paid off as it seems to disrupt the rhythm of the away team and successfully limiting their chances. It's worth noting that there were three yellow cards delivered in the first half and four more in the second. This increasing number implies a heightened level of aggression on both sides as the match progressed. The away team's last yellow card, however, escalated to a red card, which happened late in the match and, thus, might not cause a significant impact on the match's result but was certainly detrimental to their effort to level the score.

The only goal came halfway into the second half, suggesting dominance of FK Pardubice in possession and territory, which eventually paid off. This scoring should be seen from both positions: FK Pardubice's effective forward play and FC Hradec Kralove's failing defensive strategy. FC Hradec Kralove's defense was, thus, the weak spot where FK Pardubice capitalized.

In conclusion, even though the match went relatively neck-to-neck in terms of corner kicks, the discerning factor lay in FK Pardubice's aggressive play reflected by the number of yellow cards they received and their ability to convert their possession and territory into a winning goal. FC Hradec Kralove has to rethink their defensive strategy due to their failure to counter FK Pardubice's attacks, which has resulted in the only goal of the match.
