This Copa Sudamericana match between Defensor Sporting Club and Danubio FC was indeed a spectacle with seven combined goals, showing both teams' aggressive offensive efforts. The final score was 4-3 in favor of Danubio FC despite an early lead established by Defensor Sporting with their goal from a penalty kick at the very start of the match.

Analyzing key statistics and performance indicators, the aggressive playing style of both teams is evident in the yellow card count; Defensor Sporting Club received 3 yellow cards while Danubio FC only had 1. This suggests tighter discipline on Danubio FC's side, which likely played a part in their victory.

The fact that the teams were called offside just three times in the entirety of the game (all against the home team) shows that the positioning of the attacking players was usually well timed. This allowed more attempts on goal, creating more opportunities to score. Danubio FC managed to stay onside for the whole match; this tactical element could be one of the factors behind their win.

Looking at set-piece chances, Danubio FC managed twice as many corners with six compared to Defensor Sporting's three. This provided Danubio with additional scoring opportunities, which could have contributed significantly to their narrow win by giving them more chances to challenge Defensor Sporting's defensive line.

Interestingly, Danubio FC were more aggressive in their play, committing 12 fouls compared to Defensor Sporting’s 10. Even though it's a narrow margin, this suggests more disruptive play from the away side could have led to more free-kicks, potentially leading to scoring chances.

The teams were almost equally matched in terms of performance and team effort; however, Danubio FC showed greater discipline, an ability to create more set-piece opportunities, and an effective attacking strategy that avoided offsides. These features of play arguably gave Danubio FC the edge in this match, ultimately leading them to emerge victorious in this thrilling Copa Sudamericana encounter.
