The UEFA Nations League match on 8 September 2024 between Slovakia and Azerbaijan showed a decisive 2-0 victory for the home team. Slovakia's early dominance was evident as they secured their first goal within the first 22 minutes and doubled the lead merely four minutes later. The rapid succession of goals disrupted Azerbaijan's game plan, forcing them to play more aggressively, which resulted in multiple yellow cards.
Statistically, Azerbaijan had more corner kicks, attempting to push towards the goal with 6 set-piece opportunities compared to Slovakia’s 4. However, they struggled to convert these chances into goals. Meanwhile, Slovakia demonstrated more precise and effective play, which is underscored by the fact they only needed 4 corners, suggesting they capitalized effectively on fewer chances and showcased stronger finishing.
Discipline, or lack thereof, also played a crucial role in the match dynamics. Azerbaijan's aggressive defense led to four yellow cards, three of which were issued during the first half. This aggressive play disrupted their defensive stability and led to errors, while Slovakia maintained composure throughout, not receiving any yellow cards. The higher foul count on Slovakia’s part (16 compared to 11) suggested a tactical disruption of play rather than ill-discipline, helping to break up Azerbaijan’s rhythm.
The lack of offsides against Azerbaijan could indicate a lack of forward momentum and failed breakaways, highlighting a deficiency in penetrating Slovakia’s back line. Meanwhile, Slovakia's solitary offside suggests more coordinated and strategic attempts to breach Azerbaijan’s defense, reflecting superior teamwork and communication that ultimately translated into goals and a well-earned victory.
In summary, Slovakia's clinical early goals, disciplined approach, and effective utilization of opportunities overshadowed Azerbaijan's reactive and undisciplined defense. These factors were significant in determining the match outcome.
