In the EFL Cup competition fixture held on 08 August 2023, Mansfield Town emerged victorious over Grimsby Town with a 2-0 scoreline, indicating a strong performance by the home side.

Mansfield Town managed to considerably leverage control of the field, reflected in their twofold scoring. The first goal came uncompromisingly early at 27:30 in the first half putting immediate pressure on Grimsby Town, while the second solidifying goal was scored at 54:14 in the second half - strategically distanced moments that held sway on the match dynamics. Despite the putting pressure on the away side early in the game, Grimsby Town failed to respond, which underpins the attacking prowess and control of Mansfield.

A significant part of Mansfield Town's success could be attributed to their overwhelmingly high corner kick count of 12 against Grimsby Town's 4. This suggests intensive pressure applied on the away team's defense, and implies Mansfield's control over the game and superiority in territorial gain.

Discipline also stood out as a crucial factor in this match. Grimsby Town, unfortunately, received two yellow cards, one awarded late in the first half at 27:08 – shortly before the first goal was scored, and the second in the second half at 59:28. These disciplinary actions might have undermined Grimsby Town's rhythm and strategy execution, while Mansfield Town managed to maintain a clean sheet in terms of bookings, providing them the opportunity to stay focused and constantly putting the away team under pressure.

Overall, Mansfield Town outperformed Grimsby Town in terms of goals, corner kicks and discipline. Grimsby Town's defensive fragility and inefficiency in maintaining ball possession closer to their opponent's goal post was consistently demonstrated throughout the match and played a significant role in the outcome. For future encounters, Grimsby would need critical revisits to their defensive strategies and instill the level of discipline essential in important games of such nature.

The data used here hence points to not just a match decided by the number of goals, but also to the implication of discipline (or lack of), strategic timing of goals and the leverage of corner kicks which are all critical ingredients in the recipe of winning a football match.
