In a defensively strategic yet moderately card-laden match of the Serie C competition, the home team - LR Vicenza Virtus, managed to eke out a tight victory over visitors US Pergolettese 1932 on 24th September 2023.

Vicenza Virtus scored the only goal of the match during the 51st minute of the second half, after a tense deadlock in the first half that saw various high-stake plays and two yellow cards meted out to the Vicenza team, at 23rd and 29th minute respectively.

Vicenza’s defence was met with commendable resistance as the away team, Pergolettese 1932, attempted to regain control and momentum. However, the home team stood firm and even displayed calibrated aggression, earning them another pair of yellow cards at the 60th and 64th minutes of the second half.

Disciplinary actions became routine in the latter half of the match. Pergolettese 1932 was bestowed with three yellow cards as well within a span of mere nine minutes (from the 73rd minute through to the 81st minute), marking the most cards the team received in such a short period this season. A final yellow card was handed to Vicenza at the 93rd minute.

Set plays also played a significant role in this tightly contested match, with Vicenza earning twice the number of corner kicks as Pergolettese 1932 did, securing 4 compared to the away team's 2. Whether due to better tactical set ups or luck on the day, Vicenza seemed to have an edge when it came to corner opportunities, which surely helped maintain pressure on the opposing side, and can potentially be linked to their 1-0 victory.

Consequently, the high number of disciplinary actions (10 yellow cards with 60% allotted to the home team ) indicted a heightened tension on the pitch, and perhaps shows that both teams were willing to put their reputation on the line in their quest for the advantage. However, the absence of red cards indicates that no team went overboard and could control their aggression to some extent.

In summary, a series of careful strategic plays, coupled with a tighter defense, greater aggression, and more opportunities from set pieces, gave LR Vicenza Virtus the edge required to secure victory in this highly competitive match against US Pergolettese 1932. The disciplined approaches and the campaigns for controlling the game with advantage resulted in a yellow card flecked match, indicating the high stakes at play. Despite the setback, Pergolettese 1932, put up a strong fight, but on this day, the trophy belonged to Vicenza.
