Based on the available statistical data from the football match on 21 May 2023 between DH Cebu and Stallion Laguna FC, there are several factors that significantly impacted the outcome of the match.

DH Cebu secured a 1-0 win, with their solitary goal coming from the first half of the game at 00:41:33. Contrastingly, Stallion Laguna FC failed to convert their ball possession into a single goal. Despite having more corner kicks (8) which usually signal notable scoring opportunities, Stallion Laguna couldn't capitalise; whereas, DH Cebu managed to score a goal with their 2 corner kicks. This begs the question of the effectiveness of Stallion Laguna's finishing touch on their set-piece opportunities within the box.

In terms of discipline, the away team picked up more yellow cards (2) than the home team (1). The first yellow card for Stallion Laguna came in the first half at 00:29:51, which could have affected the team and the player on an individual level, putting them at risk of a red card earlier in the game undoubtedly shifted their tactics and player behaviour.

Interestingly, DH Cebu’s yellow card only came in the second half at 00:46:39. This might hint towards a slight increase in intensity or aggressive tactics from them, although it did not dramatically hinder their performance with not any further bookings or the worse a red card.

Furthermore, Stallion Laguna FC's edge in the corner kicks - 8 to 2, and the additional yellow card in the second half could suggest a desperate struggle to equalise in the later stages of the match; however, their efforts were less fruitful.

On a nutshell, the defensive strength of DH Cebu and the effectiveness in leveraging their fewer scoring opportunities (Corners) made a distinguishable difference. Their level of discipline also played a part in keeping their team at full strength for a longer period into the game. On the other hand, the inefficiency of Stallion Laguna FC in capitalizing on their increased set-piece opportunities and two yellow cards were significant factors in their loss.

Football bettors might want to consider not just the number of opportunities or possessions teams are getting but the quality and results of these possessions, along with taking note of the team’s discipline on the field.
