The Liga 1 match between Universidad Cesar Vallejo and Cusco FC held on March 3rd, 2024 was a tightly contested affair that ended up with both the sides sharing the honours with a 2-2 draw. The match featured aggressive attacking play and commendable defence on both ends, making it a balanced game overall.

The home team, Universidad Cesar Vallejo, made a strong start scoring a goal as early as the 4th minute. However, Cusco FC immediately clawed their way back into the game by securing an equalizer in the 8th minute, and then taking a lead in the 30th minute. In the second half, Universidad Cesar Vallejo managed to net the equalizer, bringing the score to 2-2 around the 55th minute.

Despite having the same number of corner kicks (4), neither Universidad Cesar Vallejo nor Cusco FC could effectively convert these opportunities into goal-scoring chances. It's clear that both teams need to work more on capitalising on such set-piece chances.

The discipline, or lack of it, has also played a significant role in shaping the outcome of the game. Cusco FC earned three yellow cards, with two coming in the first half, hinting at a slightly aggressive play as they fought to overturn the deficit. Universidad Cesar Vallejo, on the other hand, received two yellow cards, one of which turned into a red card in the second half, putting them in a disadvantageous position of playing with 10 men for the remainder of the match.

The offside statistic does point to an element of impatience in the Cusco FC’s attacking play. They were flagged offside once, suggesting a possible desperation to score, which might have led to lack of formation and coherence in their forward movement.

Overall, both the teams went toe-to-toe in respect of goals, with accurate shots finding the back of the net. However, the lack of conversion from corner kicks and maintaining discipline on the field were two areas that impacted the game and are certainly areas of improvement for both teams. Universidad Cesar Vallejo, in particular, need to build on their match awareness given that a dismissal can significantly hamper their game plan.

In conclusion, the game was a fiercely contested affair, with both teams showing a healthy mix of offence and defence. Cusco FC's aggressive, sometimes overly-aggressive, play kept them in the game, but both teams will need to address their discipline and set-piece conversion rates going forward. Universidad Cesar Vallejo, while fighting hard to secure a draw, will also need to work on their player discipline to avoid being a man down in crucial scenarios.
