During the grueling match between Portuguesa Acarigua FC and CD Palestino in Copa Libertadores on February 20, 2024, both teams saw a hard-fought battle, but ultimately it ended in a goalless draw.

Statistically speaking, Portuguesa Acarigua FC exhibited a substantially stronger attacking performance than CD Palestino. The home team launched a total of 13 attempts at the goal with 8 of them being on target. This compares to a lesser attack vector from CD Palestino, who only managed 6 attempts, with 2 on target.

Remarkably, CD Palestino’s keeper made an impressive eight saves in comparison to two saves by the home team’s keeper, which demonstrates that the visitors had been considerably more under fire throughout the spectrum of play. These statistics underscore the mounting pressure from Portuguesa Acarigua FC on the opposing goalie. It's worth noting that the high number of saves by the CD Palestino goalkeeper played a key role in preventing any goals by Portuguesa Acarigua FC.

Both teams made three substitutions indicating a close match with both teams trying to alter their tactical approach when needed. In terms of discipline, neither team was issued any red or yellow cards, implying a clean and fair play from both sides.

Portuguesa Acarigua FC also won six corner kicks, twice as many as CD Palestino, further emphasizing the home team’s advanced attacking maneuvers. Yet, neither team managed to successfully utilize these set-pieces to score a goal.

In the aggregate, while Portuguesa Acarigua FC may have dominated in attacking statistics, the goalless result reflects a valiant defensive effort by CD Palestino, and particularly an outstanding performance by their goalkeeper. Conversely, Portuguesa Acarigua FC will need to reflect on their finishing techniques given the number of their attacks that didn't yield a goal this match.

Ultimately, this match was a battle of defenses and the evening belonged to the goalkeepers, who kept their nets clean amidst a storm of shots.
