In the recent Saudi Professional League match on 15th September 2023, the away team Al Fateh SC showcased an impressive performance against the home team, Al Khaleej Saihat. Al Fateh SC scored three times, while Al Khaleej could only manage to find the back of the net once.

One of the crucial factors of Al Fateh SC's win was their quick and effective strike in the first half, where two goals were scored within the initial 15 minutes. This gave them a solid early lead which enabled them to control the game pace and gave less room for Al Khaleej Saihat to recover. Also, Al Fateh SC had an additional goal in the 68th minute of the second half, which further cemented their lead.

The home team, Al Khaleej Saihat, however, managed to pull one back in the 85th minute of the second half. This late retaliation played a part in maintaining the pressure in the final quarter of the match.

Interestingly, even though Al Fateh SC had fewer corner kicks compared to Al Khaleej Saihat (2 versus 6), it didn't inhibit their scoring ability. The lack of efficiency from Al Khaleej Saihat’s set pieces was a notable factor in this match. Meanwhile, both teams were quite evenly matched regarding offsides, with Al Fateh SC slightly leading with three instances compared to Al Khaleej’s two.

As for disciplinary actions, the home team had one yellow card compared to the away team getting two yellow cards and subsequently one red card due to the accumulation. The late second yellow card for Al Fateh SC didn’t significantly impact the course of the match as they had already set themselves up for a win.

From a statistical and performance perspective, Al Fateh SC proved themselves superior with effective control and swift, strategic scoring. Despite being at an apparent disadvantage in terms of set pieces, their execution and tactical acumen carried them to the win. Al Khaleej Saihat will need to consider their efficiency in capitalizing on their opportunities if they are to turn such games in their favor in the future.

As always in such complex games, the stats provide only a glimpse of the full picture, but they undoubtedly point to a deserved win for Al Fateh SC in this instance.
