In an electrifying match at the EFL Cup, Rotherham United emerged victorious against Morecambe with a final score of 5-3. Based on the statistics recorded, the dominance of the home team was clearly felt throughout the game, mainly reflected in the number of goals and their prevalence in drawing corner kicks.

Rotherham United's goal scoring momentum took a little while to build with the first goal coming in at 00:36:36, notably addressing Morecambe's initial goal in the first half that came at 00:22:38, pulling a draw at the first half. The defining home team's lead came about in style with a successful penalty that tipped the balance and led the way for Rotherham's majority in scoring.

Disciplinary actions seem to have been limited to one yellow card received by each side, in the second half. The timing of the yellow cards might indicate some increase in pressure as the game progressed, however it didn’t greatly affect the overall game outcome.

One area that saw Rotherham significantly outperform Morecambe was in corner kicks, with the home team securing 6 compared to the away team's 2. Such set-piece dominance alludes to the continuous pressure Rotherham United imposed on Morecambe's defense and control over the game's pace. However, both teams were caught offside just once – indicating a well-organized defense on both sides.

Furthermore, no red cards recorded indicates a controlled and sportsmanlike match despite the high intensity.

Across the boards, it is evident that Rotherham showcased greater performance in terms of offensive pressure implemented through both goals and corner kicks. Morecambe's inability to convert possession into chances, providing fewer corner kicks put them on the back foot.

Overall, the combination of penalty conversions, increased number of goals, and dominance in corner kicks clinched the victory for Rotherham United. On paper, Morecambe had presented a solid challenge but ultimately fell short against a superior foe on this particular day.

Based on this data, bettors would do well to consider Rotherham's efficiency in converting penalities and their command in corner kicks, as both factors significantly contributed to their win. For future ties involving Morecambe, their initial quick goal suggests they can be sharp out of the gate but maintaining this momentum should be their focus.
