In a highly competitive First Division clash on August 28, 2023, the match between Treaty United and Waterford FC ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw.

Scoring goals early in the game was a successful strategy for Waterford FC, who took a 2-0 lead in the first half, but the team’s performance deteriorated in the second half. The swift strike at 01:57 and the well-driven goal at the 09:49 mark of the first half, were both impressive. Their performance, however, declined in the second half as they failed to convert any goals, in contrast to their brisk start.

Treaty United, on the other hand, dominated the second half of the match. Despite starting slow and conceding two goals in the first half, the team rallied and brought the game back to level in the second half. The goals, fired in at 73:24 and 78:13, displayed a remarkable comeback from the home team.

Discipline was a bit of an issue for both teams, each being handed three yellow cards. Waterford FC collected their cards early with two in the initial 12 minutes and one at the 58th minute. The home team were more disciplined in the first half but received their cards in quick succession in the second half - at 65:50, 67:25 and 71:45, reflective of the escalating tension as they pursued the comeback.

Treaty had significantly more corner kicks (11) compared to Waterford FC's 2, putting them constantly under pressure in their own half. This pressure ultimately paid off with two goals on Treaty's side in the second half. The efficiency of both teams regarding offside infringements was good with Treaty being caught four times and Waterford only two times by the Assistant Referees.

Looking at key performance indicators, Treaty United dramatically turned the tide in the second half which clearly reflected their determination and resilience to fight back from a 2-0 deficit. Meanwhile, Waterford FC failed to maintain their first-half momentum in the second half, which ultimately also affected the game's final result.

Overall, while both teams' robust performance made for a thrilling football match, the highlight was Treaty United’s momentous comeback in the second half, despite being two goals down.
