Both teams got a scoring start in the first half of the match. Rot Weiss Ahlen led the game a lot sooner, precisely at the 4-minute 20-second mark, but their early lead didn't last long.

Rot Weiss Ahlen seemed to dominate in terms of corner kicks with a total of 8, highlighting their attack-oriented gameplay and pressure they were relentless to put on, while SV Lippstadt 08 only managed two corners.

Despite Rot Weiss Ahlen's offensive approach which led to more corner kicks, SV Lippstadt 08 was able to display better defensive structure as well as more effective utilization of their possessions into goals. Their discipline proved to be a significant factor, considering the fact that 'the less penalty-conscious' Rot Weiss Ahlen received three more yellow cards, ultimately leading to one red card. This reduction in team members may have lessened the home team's defenses against SV Lippstadt's attacks to eventually change the direction of the game in favor of the away team.

Lastly, although Rot Weiss Ahlen was the more aggressive team in terms of pushing for goals, it was ultimately SV Lippstadt 08's effective defensive organization and efficient forward play that won them the match, once again proving that football is not always won by the team with the most possession or chances, but by the team with the most effective utilization of opportunities.
