In the First League match held on March 17, 2024, FK Jezero Plav's efficient performance led them to a well-deserved 1-0 win over FK Rudar Pljevlja, despite playing as the away team and having statistically fewer shots on target.

The critical element in the match was the teams' efficiency in their shots on goal. Although FK Rudar Pljevlja had more overall attempts, with 10 shots compared to Jezero's 5, they struggled to convert these opportunities into goals. The home team made 4 shots on target, yet failing to capitalize on them, showcasing the outstanding performance by the goalkeeper of FK Jezero Plav who made 4 crucial saves.

On the contrary, FK Jezero Plav was more focused and accurate with their attempts, scoring their lone goal from one of their two shots on target in the second half. This reflects their effectiveness in capitalizing on goal-scoring opportunities.

Discipline was evident throughout the match, with neither team receiving any yellow or red cards. Also, the number of fouls committed by both teams remained close, with Jezero committing only two more fouls than Rudar.

The set-piece scenarios, including corner kicks, majorly favoured FK Rudar Pljevlja who earned 8 corners in contrast to FK Jezero's 3, albeit a hint of their aggressive attack. However, FK Rudar was unable to translate their dominance in corners into goals, further emphasizing the solid defensive play of Jezero.

In terms of offsides, the teams were mostly disciplined, with Rudar being called for offsides twice compared to once for Jezero.

In conclusion, the pivotal factor in Jezero’s win was their effectiveness in goal scoring, their defensive solidity demonstrated by their goalkeeper’s saves, and their ability maintain discipline. Despite Rudar’s multiple shots, corners, and aggressive gameplay, they failed to translate these advantages into goals. Finally, both teams made full use of their permitted substitutions, possibly attempting to bring on fresh legs and different tactics, but it was Jezero's efficient play that ultimately decided the match.
