The 3. Liga football match played between Rot-Weiss Essen and SSV Ulm 1846 on the 17th of February, 2024 highlighted an aggressive but fairly disciplined display from both the teams, reinforced by the fact that despite a cumulated total of 18 fouls, no yellow or red cards were issued throughout the game.

Data reveals that Rot-Weiss Essen held a definite edge in terms of performance, as reflected in their 3-2 win against SSV Ulm 1846. They maintained superior control over the ball proven by 7 shots on target in comparison to Ulm's 4. Although Essen's goalkeeper had to make fewer saves (2) as against Ulm's goalie with 4 saves, it was precisely these saves that denied Ulm a tie or possible win.

Assessing the offensive play, Essen succeeded in creating more scoring opportunities, having 3 assists which resulted in the 3 goals. While Ulm also had a 100% conversion ratio from assists to goals, they fell a goal short of Essen’s tally. Essen also had more attempts at the goal, documented by their shots on and off target (7 and 3 respectively) against Ulm's 4 on-target and 5 off-target shots, leading to a higher probability of scoring.

The tactical performance of Rot-Weiss Essen also outshone in set-pieces. With five corner kicks as compared to three by Ulm, Essen exuded a stronger offensive front, a pressure Ulm could not match.

One key aspect where both teams showed parity was in their strategy adjustments – each team made 3 substitutions in the course of the game. It highlighted a similar game strategy to introduce fresh legs and possibly shift tactical focus per evolving match situation.

Summing up, the most glaring impact factors for this match outcome included the balance between offense and defense by Essen, demonstrated by their superior shots on target, efficient utilisation of corner kicks, and effective assistance to score. Although there were no significant differences in disciplinary actions or game adjustments, Essen's superior ball control played a pivotal role in their victory.
