The closely contested A Lyga football match between FK Suduva Marijampole and DFK Dainava, played on March 31, 2024, was punctuated by a single goal that spelled a disappointing loss for the home team.

In the match, DFK Dainava showcased an aggressive style of play, as evidenced by the number of yellow cards received. With a total of eight yellow cards and eventually a red card, they kept the pressure constant on FK Suduva Marijampole. While intensity in play can be an advantage, it can also be risky. However, in Dainava's instance, it worked in their favor by affecting the rhythm of the match and subsequent behavior of the opposing team.

Scoring in the first half of the match significantly contributed to Dainava's win. The early goal at 43 minutes and 22 seconds set the tone, putting FK Suduva Marijampole into a defensive mode. This had a significant impact on Suduva's performance who, despite having more corner kicks, were unable to capitalize by scoring a goal in response.

FK Suduva Marijampole displayed great discipline with fewer yellow cards, only racking up three in comparison to Dainava's eight. However, their discipline did not bring a significant advantage. They seemed vulnerable during attacks, which is evident from the three offsides they registered. Their lack of concentration and accuracy is further evidenced by the absence of a goal on the scoreboard despite having more ball possessions in the corner.

The final result signifies the success of DFK Dainava's aggressive style of play and early scoring strategy against FK Suduva Marijampole's defensive approach and discipline. Despite their number of corner kicks, FK Suduva Marijampole failed to transform their possession into goals, while DFK Dainava capitalized on their opportunities, irrespective of the number of fouls committed.

This match was a textbook illustration of the classical football philosophy, “The best defense is a good offense”, brought to life by DFK Dainava. It indicates that for a winning strategy, timing, and the style of play have more impact than mere maintenance of discipline.
