In a match teeming with palpable tension and exciting gameplay, Sporting San Miguelito recorded a close 2-1 win against CD Plaza Amador in the stunning match of the LPF competition. The result can be attributed to a number of key factors revealed by the data.

Sporting San Miguelito was very active attacking, decently putting 6 shots on target and 4 shots off, out of which 2 found their way behind the net. This superior attacking performance was further acknowledged by Sporting committing more offsides 3 compared to the Plaza’s 2, suggesting more aggressive forward play from them.

Interestingly, despite the home team took more shots, Plaza Amador’s goalkeeper was kept busier with 5 saves compared to Sporting’s keeper who had to make only 3 saves. This suggests a more resilient Plaza defence line which was able to deflect more shots, but ultimately, it was not enough to prevent the home team from scoring twice.

In conjunction with the above, Sporting’s offensive superiority was demonstrated by the number of corner kicks awarded to them. They had 7 to Plaza’s 4 indicating they applied more pressure and were more dominant in the attacking third of the pitch.

A key factor that significantly impacted the match was the quality of Sporting's incisive playmaking. With 2 assists indicating successful goal-scoring opportunities created and executed, Sporting managed to keep themselves ahead of Plaza having just 1 assist.

Finally, the physicality of the match was evident with Sporting committing more fouls (10) compared to Plaza (8). This was a clear demonstration of forms of defensive mechanisms deployed by both teams to gain control of the flow of the game.

Despite both the teams making substitutions to change their dynamic on the field, it was Sporting whose substitutes made the bigger impact. Sporting made 3 substitutions, possibly providing fresh legs and new strategies to hold onto their lead and eventually emerge victorious.

This was a disciplined game, with no yellow or red cards being shown, an unusual scene but one which allowed the game's focus to stay purely on the football. However, Sporting San Miguelito's more aggressive attacking strategy and effective utilisation of their bench emerged as key elements in achieving their triumph.
