This match between West Bromwich Albion U21 and Sunderland U21 in the Premier League 2 was a tightly contested affair that ultimately saw the home team edge out a 2-1 victory.

From the very start of the match, West Bromwich Albion U21 showcased their dominance, controlling the possession and territory. Their endeavour resulted in two key goalswell executed in both halves; one in the 33rd minute of the first half and the second in the 50th min of second half, this cemented their lead.

On the other hand, Sunderland U21 seemed to struggle with retaining possession and thus were unable to create as many goal-scoring opportunities. They managed to level the score, 01:00:30 into the game but were unable to sustain this momentum.

The statistical data points strongly towards West Bromwich Albion U21's dominance. They racked up an impressive 10 corner kicks, compared to Sunderland U21's lacklustre two, indicating a stark disparity in attacking prowess and control of the game. Sunderland U21 only managed to catch their opponents offside once, further demonstrating the difficulty they had in penetrating West Bromwich's well-disciplined defence.

Discipline was indeed key in this match. With West Bromwich Albion U21 having committed 10 fouls without accruing any yellow cards, they achieved a good balance of aggression and lawfulness in their play. Sunderland on the other hand picked up a costly yellow card during the first half, potentially curbing their defensive zeal and allowing West Bromwich Albion U21 that crucial advantage to score their goals.

Notably, despite being on the losing end, Sunderland U21 committed fewer fouls with a total of 7, but these were ineffective in stemming the tide of West Bromwich Albion U21’s offensive, while also leading to a yellow card.

In conclusion, this match has demonstrated the importance of effective possession, disciplined play and capitalising on attacking opportunities. West Bromwich Albion U21 emerged victorious by comprehensively outperforming Sunderland U21 in these aspects, thereby turning these advantages into a well-earned victory.
