In the FAI Cup battle between Portlaoise AFC and Skerries Town FC, the match concluded with Skerries Town walking away with a convincing 3-0 victory. With a noteworthy performance, they managed to establish their dominance and effectively kept their hosts at bay throughout the encounter. The statistics clearly highlight how the away team dominated the proceedings and hence, they were deserved winners.

Skerries Town FC got off to an explosive start with a goal in the 12th minute of the first half. They continued their momentum into the second half scoring in the 53rd minute and again in the 88th minute. Their offensive prowess was clearly reflected in the goal-scoring timeline and summarised their positive attacking intent.

On the contrary, Portlaoise AFC's offence failed to create a substantial impact. Despite being involved in a few offside situations (4), they fell short of capitalising on these advanced field positions. Their inability to convert their offensive forays into goals was a pivotal factor contributing to their loss.

Looking at set-pieces, Skerries obtained four corner kicks compared to just one for Portlaoise. This indicates that Skerries maintained pressure on the home team's defence, forcing them to concede corners, which might have further disrupted the structure of Portlaoise's defensive unit and created scoring chances for the visitors.

Disciplinary actions were evenly distributed with both teams receiving one yellow card each, indicating a fair level of intensity and competitiveness. While these disciplinary actions didn't directly affect the goal scoring, they exhibit the underlying tension and heightened aggression which might have played a role in the players' match performance and tactics.

In conclusion, Skerries Town FC's superior attacking display was pivotal to their triumph over Portlaoise AFC. Their ability to capitalize on set pieces, alongside their effective offensive display, underpinned their victory in this fixture. On the other hand, Portlaoise's inability to convert their offensive forays into goals confine them to a disappointing home defeat.
