In the Veikkausliiga competition held on 02 June 2024, the match between home team Ekenäs IF and away team VPS resulted in an 2-1 victory to VPS. All the three major goals fell into the second half of the match.

Ekenas IF took the initial lead in the second half at 01:03:00, but it was short-lived as VPS began to establish their supremacy. The away team bounced back quickly, scoring their first goal at 01:09:20 and overtook the lead just at 01:14:25. Ekenas, despite having early control, could not sustain the momentum, allowing their opponents to seize their chances.

In terms of discipline, Ekenas was at a constant struggle. They managed to accumulate whopping 6 yellow cards, with 3 falling in the first half within a span of 11 minutes, perhaps showing a more aggressive, albeit careless, approach. The trend continued in the second half, with the team earning additional 3 yellow cards and a red card further. Meanwhile, VPS maintained relative calm in the face of Ekenas’ aggression, earning a total of 3 yellow cards.

The corner count was also dominated by the home team, with 5 corner kicks as against 3 corners clinched by the VPS. This may suggest that Ekenas IF did have offensive opportunities, but they couldn’t quite capitalize on them. Each team had an equal number of offside 1 each, suggesting a strength in both teams’ defences at keeping lateral control.

This was a game riddled with fouls and interruptions, which certainly would have broken the flow of the game. Ekenas IF's indiscipline contributed significantly to their downfall, whereas VPS stayed focused and made the most of their goal scoring opportunities. Despite the loss, the home team displayed competitive energy, earning more corner kicks, an indication of their strong attacking strategy. However, the onslaught of yellow cards, including the red card, played directly into VPS' hands, inhibiting the home team from effectively leveraging their edge in opportunities.
