In an exciting clash at the Baltic Cup on 11 June 2024, between the home team Lithuania and the away team Estonia, strategic play and high disciplinary standards from the Lithuanian side were contrasted by aggressive and more effective play by the Estonians, attributing to their 5-4 victory.

Lithuania stood out with their clean play, committing only half the number of fouls (7), compared to Estonia's 15, and not a single yellow card in contrast to Estonia's three. Despite having more fouls and receiving the yellow cards, Estonia managed to maintain their composure and capitalize on their opportunities leading to a massive win.

The shot accuracy of the Estonians was indeed remarkable. They managed to convert their shots into goals with greater precision than the home team. Lithuanian's lower conversion rate, however, would suggest that their focus should shift towards shot quality as much as possession in the field.

Looking at territorial dominance, the away team had twice as many corner kicks as the home side (Lithuania 2 - Estonia 4). Combined with the fact that Estonia was called offside twice, it is evident that they had a somewhat attacking tendency, consistently creating opportunities and applying pressure on Lithuania's defense.

Despite this aggression, Lithuania managed to retaliate by scoring 4 goals, out of which one was a penalty. The penalty, although a crucial point, could not overturn the match's outcome but illustrates a significant weakness in the Estonian team's defense.

Interestingly, the quick back-to-back goals from both teams in the second half underscore a game characterized by frequent possession turnovers, closely resulting in equally distributed scoring chances.

To conclude, the victory of the Estonians can primarily be attributed to their more aggressive offensive display and their effective exploitation of the Lithuanian's defensive shortcomings. Estonia's victory, however, was closely fought and can serve as a lesson for the team to consider improving on their discipline on the field. Lithuania, on the other hand, needs to leverage on their disciplined and clean play, and work on converting their possession into effective shots on goal.
