This was indeed an exciting Copa Sudamericana match between Fortaleza CE and Club Libertad which ended in a 1-1 draw on 08 August 2023. It was a high-intensity match with tactical exchanges on both sides. Each team hammered home one goal, but the outcome could have been completely different bearing in mind the statistical factors and data provided.

Club Libertad, who was playing away, drew first blood in the first half at 43:44, putting Fortaleza CE in a challenging situation. Nonetheless, it wasn't until the second half, at 91:04, that Fortaleza CE found the much-needed equalizer. But it was a game of slog where Fortaleza CE only managed to best Club Libertad by one more offside, finishing with 3 offsides against Libertad’s 4.

By the numbers, we could observe that the competition was clearly intense. A total of 6 yellow cards were shown in the game, equally shared by both teams. The bulk of these yellow cards came late in the second half, demonstrating the rising desperation between the teams as they sought to break the tie. Club Libertad were especially aggressive as they committed a shocking 12 fouls against Fortaleza's 4, a feat which resulted in the award of 2 red cards to the former.

Club Libertad’s aggressive style didn’t stop at fouls as they also had twice the number of corner kicks (6), indicating sustained pressure on Fortaleza's defense. However, Fortaleza’s goalkeeper proved formidable, preventing the away team from further capitalizing on these opportunities.

In terms of teamwork, it appeared that Fortaleza CE demonstrated more discipline and control despite the pressure, committing only 4 fouls and receiving no red cards. Club Libertad, on the other hand, displayed a more aggressive and risk-taking strategy which led to an unfortunate high number of fouls and two dismissals.

To conclude, although the match ended in a draw, the statistical analysis indicates a game skewed towards aggression on Club Libertad's part, but counteracted by the disciplined precision of Fortaleza CE's playing style. Their successful navigation of the onslaught with only one conceded goal epitomizes their tactical maneuvering. Yet, the late surge from Libertad resulted in them keeping the spoils even despite their numerical disadvantage. In the end, the draw can be attributed to Fortaleza CE's defensive prowess and Club Libertad's aggressive tactics which added a dimension of unpredictability to the game.
