In the history of competitions held in the National First Division, the football match held on 26 November 2023 between the University of Pretoria FC and Venda FA has proven to be a performance of quality football.

University of Pretoria FC clearly emerged as a stronger team from the match with a 2-0 win. Both the goals were scored in the second half, indicating a powerful resurgence after the halftime break, despite no red or yellow cards being allotted to either team, which can typically influence the dynamics of the game.

When comparing the shot metrics, it becomes evident that the home team dominated the field. University of Pretoria FC led with 5 shots on target, surpassing Venda FA’s single shot on target, which played a crucial role in their two goal victory. Although Venda FA attempted more shots off target than the home team, their lack of target accuracy evidently cost them the game.

Despite being under more offensive pressure, as indicated by the higher shot on target count of the home team, Venda FA’s goalkeeper was pressured into making 3 saves compared to University of Pretoria FC's goalkeeper who performed 1 save. This stat demonstrates that Venda FA's defensive line needed to rely on their goalkeeper more than the home team to protect their net.

In terms of set-piece opportunities, University of Pretoria FC also led in corner kicks with a total of 4 in comparison to Venda FA's single corner kick, indicating that they had more attacking opportunities and used them effectively.

The away team made more substitutions - 3 in comparison to the two made by the home team, providing an indication that they were trying to change the game's dynamics. However, their efforts did not culminate in tangible results.

Finally, the minimal fouls committed by both teams showcased their defensive discipline, but the home team had the only offside in the game. That minor infraction did not dampen their overall performance, which led them to a well-deserved victory. This match's outcome was determined by the more efficient attack of University of Pretoria FC, highlighting the importance of precision over quantity in terms of shooting in football.
