In the LPF match-up on 12 August 2023 between UMECIT and Herrera FC, it was Herrera FC that claimed the victory with a score of 2-1. While UMECIT had home-field advantage, it was Herrera FC's tenacity and more aggressive playstyle that secured them the win.

The first half saw solid defenses from both teams, with no one finding the back of the net. However, both teams picked up yellow cards within a short period. Away Team Herrera FC was the first to pick up a yellow card at the 17:33 mark, followed closely by the Home Team UMECIT at the 19:33 mark. Tension escalated as yet another yellow card was given to the Herrera FC at the 20:39 mark. Despite the fouls, the first half ended goalless.

Entering the second half, the match turned feisty with a flurry of yellow cards. During this phase, the Away team Herrera FC was more disciplined offensively, starting with a goal at 00:56:53, swiftly followed by another at 01:26:21. Despite being down by two goals, UMECIT didn’t back down as they managed to score a goal at 01:35:16.

A closer look at the corners shows that Herrera FC had doubled the number of corner opportunities compared to UMECIT, (6:3). This indicates Herrera FC pressed higher and more frequently, subsequently creating a greater number of scoring opportunities. UMECIT’s play was more cautious and less offensive, and they were unable to capitalize on the fewer corner opportunities they earned.

Discipline was an issue for both teams, with Herrera FC collecting a hefty 9 yellow cards compared to UMECIT's 3. However, it was UMECIT that faced the more serious penalty with a red card. This expulsion may have been a key factor in UMECIT's inability to recover from the two-goal deficit, as it not only led to a numerical disadvantage, but also likely emotionally disrupted UMECIT's team dynamic and overall game plan.

The game's statistics suggest Herrera FC’s aggressive pressing and capitalization on the corner opportunities were instrumental in their win. UMECIT, on the other hand, would need to work on managing their fouls and maintaining squad numbers to turn around future games.
