In a close-fought battle in the FAI Cup, it was St. Patrick's Athletic who emerged victorious over Longford Town with a score of 2-1. Noteworthy statistics from this match reflected a game of pressure and response, echoing the pulse of both team's determination and tactical execution.

The volume of corner kicks stands out as a potential influence on the outcome. St. Patrick's Athletic managed to make 12 corner kicks, significantly more than Longford Town's 7. Although not every corner kick leads directly to a goal, they do reflect the degree of offensive pressure a team exerts, suggesting that St. Patrick's Athletic was consistently pushing the action towards Longford Town’s half. Scalable pressure often results in defenses breaking down in the later stages of a match.

In relation to disciplinary actions, Longford Town seemed to have struggled, receiving two yellow cards and, detrimentally, two red cards. This reduction in their player count significantly affected their tactical approaches, forcing them into a defensive stand. Herein, it can be argued that the stringent actions may have notably worked against the home team while handing an advantage to St. Patrick's Athletic.

Interestingly, the data indicates that each side has shown similar consistency with offsides. With only 1 offside recorded against Longford Town and 2 against St. Patrick's Athletic, both clubs demonstrated a considered and careful approach in avoiding being caught behind the defense.

In terms of goals scoring and timing, there is a clear snapshot of how both teams fared. The away team kicked off their scoring in the second half, closely followed by the home team. However, a swift response from St. Patrick’s Athletic just two minutes later shifted the dynamic quickly in their favor, a swift reversal that would have tested the composure and morale of the Longford Town team.

All these variables have contributed to the outcome of the match as seen today, alluding to several areas each team might focus upon for their upcoming battles. The importance of discipline, the application of sustained pressure, and the impeccable timing in scoring are highlighted once again in this clash between Longford Town and St. Patrick's Athletic.

In conclusion, beyond the scoreline, the broader performance indicators suggest a match that was tough, tightly contested, and swung on the pendulum of discipline and decisiveness in the opponent's half. This insightful analysis should prove invaluable for bettors in predicting future performances of these teams in subsequent matches.
