The Serie C matchup that took place at 12:30 EEST on the 23rd of April, 2023 between San Donato Tavarnelle and US Fiorenzuola was a closely contested one, with a narrow 1-0 victory for the home team.

San Donato Tavarnelle opened up the scoring proceedings early in the first half at precisely 00:14:32. It was the only goal scored throughout the match, highlighting a strong defensive performance by both teams. This early lead could have been a significant factor in how the rest of the match unfolded, forcing US Fiorenzuola to play catch-up from the get-go while San Donato Tavarnelle consolidated their lines to protect the slender lead.

Despite having fewer corner kick opportunities (6) compared to US Fiorenzuola's 8, San Donato Tavarnelle was more effective in converting the few they had, further emphasizing the side's overall superior game management. The home side's defense also held firm, successfully nullifying the more abundant corner opportunities of the away team.

It is worth noting, however, that despite the victory, San Donato Tavarnelle's discipline was less than stellar with 4 yellow cards awarded to them compared to just 1 for US Fiorenzuola. The first yellow card for the home team came late in the first half at 00:44:13 while two more cards were issued in the second half at 00:47:46 and then towards the tail end of the competition at 01:22:46. However, the significant gap between the timings of these cards suggests they did not heavily disrupt the team's gameplay and more importantly, none escalated to a sending-off.

In conclusion, the primary factor that appeared to determine the match outcome was the early goal scored by San Donato Tavarnelle, allowing them to focus on defending their lead. Also, the more efficient utilization of fewer corner kicks and the impressive display of defense under pressure even with more yellow cards made the difference in this closely competed encounter.
