The Icelandic League Cup match between Fram Reykjavik and UMF Njardvik ended in a decisive 3-1 victory for the home side. The higher number of goals scored by Fram Reykjavik, particularly in the second half, can be attributed to an increased penetration due to more shots on target, indicating more aggressive offences.

Though Njardvik took an early lead in the game, the lack of cohesion in their defensive unit became more apparent as the match progressed, allowing Reykjavik to bounce back with three successive goals in the second half, scored in just six minutes.

Both teams had almost an equal number of fouls, Njardvik with 12 and Fram Reykjavik with 8. However, neither of the teams were given any yellow or red cards, showing an impressive level of discipline in a high-stakes match, without having made non-strategic fouls.

Fram Reykjavik's effectiveness in front of the goal was also highlighted by their seven shots on target out of a total of 11, compared to Njardvik's three from five. This highlights Fram's offensive effectiveness, and is directly proportional to their scoring in the game.

In terms of corner kicks, Fram Reykjavik led with 7 compared to Njardvik's 4, indicating better attacking movement, especially from the flanks, potentially overwhelming Njardvik's defence multiple times.

Njardvik's goalkeeper, though conceding three goals, managed to make four crucial saves, while Fram Reykjavik's saved two of the three shots on target, underscoring the importance of the goalkeeper's role even in a match tipped in Fram's favour.

The game saw more substitutions from Reykjavik's side, perhaps indicative of their dynamic game plan and strategically timed changes.

Ultimately, Fram Reykjavik took full advantage of their home ground, superior control of the ball and making more precise, aggressive offences. The match certainly displayed Fram's offensive prowess partnered with disciplined play, which were significant aspects in the decisive victory over Njardvik.
