This match in the Regionalliga South West, between VfB Stuttgart II and FC Astoria Walldorf, was a tightly contested game, but Stuttgart II was ultimately able to claim a hard-fought 1-0 victory. This result, however, was influenced by some key data and statistical factors.

The home team, Stuttgart II, scored the only goal of the match, early into the second half (49:58). This proves to be a crucial moment, tipping the game in their favour.

One noticeable factor that gave Stuttgart II the edge in this game was the discipline of the away team. Stuttgart II conceded five yellow cards, while their opponents Walldorf only received two. Interestingly the bulk of Stuttgart II's yellow cards came in the second half (four) compared to just one in the first half. On the contrary, the away team remained fairly disciplined throughout the match, avoiding any red cards. However, their second yellow card awarded late into the second half (76:32) may have affected their momentum, resulting in less offensive power through the later stages of the game.

Looking at corner kicks as potential opportunities for both teams, Walldorf did create more opportunities through set pieces, securing 7 corners in comparison to Stuttgart II's 3. This suggests that Walldorf had more significant chances to score; however, they failed to capitalize on these opportunities.

The final score does indicate a victory for Stuttgart II, yet it also signals a game that saw a fair amount of defensive play, given the low scoreline. The necessity for Stuttgart II to defend their lead may factor into why they had more disciplinary issues in the second half, with the increase in yellow cards potentially reflecting desperate, last-ditch attempts to hold on to their narrow lead.

In conclusion, the balance of discipline, particularly Stuttgart II's five yellow cards compared to Walldorf's two, as well as the home team's capacity to make the most of their one scoring opportunity while limiting the away team's chances off their seven corners, emerged as key determinants in Stuttgart II's 1-0 victory.
