The Second Division League football match held on 17th April 2023 between Al Shahaniya SC and Al Kharaitiyat ended with a resounding victory for the home team, Al Shahaniya SC, with a scoreline of 5-2.

The away team, Al Kharaitiyat, had an early breakthrough at the 15-minute mark, setting the pace for what initially looked like a fight. However, Al Shahaniya SC found their rhythm and ten minutes later, they equalized then managed to get ahead by halftime, with 2 goals against Al Kharaitiyat's initial 1. This momentum was carried into the second half, where Al Shahaniya SC added three more goals, while Al Kharaitiyat could only manage one additional, making the overall score 5-2 in favor of the home team.

In terms of playing style, both teams were assertive, with Al Kharaitiyat seeming to rely heavily on set pieces in an attempt to bolster their offense, earning six corner kicks to Al Shahaniya SC's four. However, it was obvious that despite having these opportunities in the attacking third, Al Kharaitiyat were not able to capitalize effectively on this advantage.

On the other hand, Al Shahaniya SC showed exemplary performance, not only in converting opportunities but also in maintaining discipline throughout the game. Their clean sheet with regards to cards as they received no bookings for fouls speaks to their well-regulated play. In contrast, the Al Kharaitiyat might have let the pressure get the better of them at times, which is reflected in their three yellow cards.

The foul counts were relatively fair on both sides, with Al Kharaitiyat giving away eight fouls compared to Al Shahaniya SC's seven. Therefore, defence strategy was not a significantly impactful factor in this match.

From a statistical perspective, the main determining factor in this game appears to be the home team's ability to convert their on-target attempts into goals. Al Shahaniya SC outperformed their counterparts in terms of executing their attacks and maintaining possession in key areas.

Additionally, the Al Kharaitiyat were noticeably impacted by their lack of discipline, evident from their three yellow cards. They need to work on maintaining cautious aggression in their style of play to avoid similar impediments in the future.

In conclusion, the clash between these two major teams resulted in a clear victory for Al Shahaniya SC, thanks to their ability to seize and convert scoring opportunities, and maintaining a disciplined game. Their performance could act as an example for what Al Kharaitiyat could aim for to bolster their future defensive and offensive potential.
