The First Division clash between 3 Sing FC and Shatin SA on November 12, 2023, at 05:30 EEST turned out to be a display of away team superiority, despite some data that seemed to contradict the 2-1 end scoreline in favor of Shatin SA.

Even though 3 Sing FC had a higher number of corner kicks (7) than Shatin SA (5), they only managed to convert one opportunity into a goal. This conversion rate could be highlighted as a factor that impacted the match outcome considerably. The home team's efficiency from corner situations was not up to scratch, which likely compromised their scoring ability, even though they had more opportunities in this area than their opponents.

Sharp contrast can be seen with Shatin SA, who, despite having fewer corner kicks, managed to score two decisive goals, both of them recorded in the second half of the game within a span of mere 9 minutes (51'14" and 60'43"). This shows more clinical finishing on part of the away team which in turn translated into a more fruitful scoreline for them.

An additional point of concern was the higher number of offsides committed by 3 Sing FC (4) in comparison to Shatin SA (2), which implies that the home team's attacking line struggled with timing their runs, thereby disrupting potentially productive plays.

A striking element of this game was the large number of yellow cards shown, especially to the away team. With a high total of 8 yellow cards (2 to the home team and 6 to the away team), disciplinary issues surfaced as a noteworthy aspect of the fixture. Shatin SA, despite the frequent interruptions and disruption caused by their fouls, managed to stay focused and maintain their lead which is appreciable.

However, it's worth noting that the home team’s late goal in the 88'51" could potentially indicate their dominance and pressure in the tail end of the game, but they simply left it too late, and time wasn't favourable to stage a comeback.

In conclusion, Shatin SA's ability to convert their chances and maintain composure under pressure, despite a flurry of yellow cards and fewer corners, overpowered 3 Sing FC's futile possession and attacking advantage. It underlines the importance of clinical finishing and disciplined defense in deciding the outcome of a closely contested game such as this one.
