The Coupe de France football match between FC Challans and Rodez, held on January 5, 2024, saw the visiting team, Rodez, giving a stunning performance, with a decisive 4-0 win over FC Challans. This comprehensive coverage draws on detailed statistical factors provided, allowing us to give precise insights to our football bettors.

Rodez’s dominance in scoring was paramount to their victory over FC Challans, netting two goals in each half. The first came just only two minutes and twenty-five seconds into the game, setting a tone of dominance that persisted throughout the match. They scored another at the twelve-minute mark, ending the first half with a 2-0 lead. They maintained this momentum in the second half, scoring quickly at the fifty-four minutes mark and another at sixty-two minutes.

However, the scoreline doesn’t tell the whole story, as FC Challans outperformed Rodez in corner kicks with 3 compared to Rodez's 2. This indicates their efforts to create scoring opportunities, though they repeatedly failed to convert these into goals. Both teams were caught offside only once, denoting the discipline with which both teams approached this match.

In terms of disciplinary actions, Rodez was awarded two yellow cards, one in each half, but it was not significant enough to reduce their player count or impact the final outcome substantially. FC Challans came out cleaner in this regard, with no yellow or red cards awarded to them. Despite having committed more fouls (2) compared to Rodez’s single infraction, FC Challans managed to maintain decorum and play within the stipulated rules but failed to translate this discipline into a favourable result.

To conclude, Rodez clearly dominated the game from the get-go and capitalized on their scoring chances which significantly impacted the final outcome. FC Challans generated opportunities through their corner kicks but failed to come through where it mattered most - on the scoreboard. While discipline, as indicated by yellow cards and fouls, didn't prove definitive in these teams’ matchups, the sheer effectiveness of Rodez in front of the goal was the determining element in this match.
