In the MFK Gelnica vs FK Spisska Nova Ves match of the Slovak Cup competition on August 23, 2023, FK Spisska Nova Ves emerged victorious with a narrow 1-0 win. The ability to convert goal-scoring opportunities was the key factor that led to their win in this thrilling encounter.

Though MFK Gelnica showed a level of aggressive gameplay as they recorded a higher number of shots (9) as compared to FK Spisska Nova Ves (9 too), they failed to convert these opportunities into goals. Their shooting accuracy was a significant factor to focus on as they had 4 shots on target compared to their opponent's 3.

This strategic balance between offense and defense was highly influential in the match outcome.

Interestingly, MFK Gelnica were awarded more corner kicks (7) compared to FK Spisska Nova Ves (5). However, they failed to capitalize on these set-piece opportunities, which could have otherwise created goal-scoring chances. This lack of efficiency in exploiting corner kick opportunities further contributed to their goal deficit.

Football being a contact sport, saw the teams committing several fouls, with FK Spisska Nova Ves (10) committing more fouls than MFK Gelnica (8).
