After a closely contested but cleanly played match that saw no yellow or red cards issued to either team, it was Argentinos Juniors who had the upper hand over the Racing Club of Montevideo in this Copa Sudamericana match played on May 7, 2024.

Comparing the teams' performance, it was not only the slightly greater number of goals achieved by Argentinos Juniors (2), in contrast to Racing Club (1), that made the difference, but also their higher precision and better use of opportunities. This is evidenced by the higher number of shots on target made by the Juniors (6 versus 3), even though the two teams had fairly similar overall shot attempts (9 for Juniors versus 8 for Racing).

The greater ball possession by Argentinos Juniors is also reflected in the higher number of Corner Kicks (4 for Juniors against 2 for Racing). This overall dominance led to more saves for Racing Club’s goalkeeper, recorded at 4 compared to Juniors’ 2. However, Racing Club also gave away more fouls (12 compared to 9 by Juniors).

In terms of off-field strategy, both teams utilized their bench equally, each making three substitutions. However, Juniors' tactical superiority was shown by their higher offsides count (2 compared with Racing Club’s 1), indicating they were more aggressive and ambitious in their forward play.

In summary, it was Argentinos Juniors' more accurate shooting and strategic play, combined with Racing Club's missed opportunities and imprecise shooting, that determined the outcome of this match. Despite equal utilization of substitutes suggesting effective bench depth for both teams, Juniors simply managed to capitalize on their chances more effectively and commit lesser fouls, contributing to a well-deserved victory.
