In a clash match in Serie C on 29 September 2023, Aurora Pro Patria managed to hold on to a single-goal lead to pull off a narrow victory at the home of US Pergolettese 1932 despite being down to ten men for a significant portion of the game.

The away side scored the only goal of the match 13 minutes and 30 seconds into the first half and despite having four yellow cards, one of which eventually led to a red in the second half, managed to keep their lead intact to take the three points.

Aurora Pro Patria’s discipline was a significant concern throughout the match. While they were first to be booked, their excessive fouls detracted from their overall performance with four yellow cards issued against them, a thorn in their side that could have easily changed the match dynamics. The 74th-minute expulsion further put Aurora Pro Patria at potential risk, however, remarkably they managed to maintain their 1-0 lead, indicating a strong defense and a tactically disciplined ten-men unit.

The home team, on the other hand, had fewer discipline issues with just a single yellow card. However, the lack of goal-scoring was evident in this match-up, despite having 6 corners in their favor. US Pergolettese 1932 managed to put some pressure but failed to convert these opportunities into goals. The home team's lone offside call backs up the conclusion of a team struggling to make significant strides in the attacking third.

In terms of teamwork and performance, the scoreboard does not reflect the statistical superiority of US Pergolettese 1932. The team had more corner opportunities and fewer disciplinary issues. However, it seems that the issue lies in the final third where the team failed to land the ball into the net. The chances were there, but finishing was lacking.

In summary, Aurora Pro Patria's early goal combined with their solid defending, even being a man down, proved decisive in this match. While Pro Pergolettese had the statistical edge, they lacked the efficiency in front of the goal. This match should underline the need for the home team to improve their finishing and for the away team to better their on-field discipline moving forwards.
