In an intriguing La Liga match played at Municipal de Balaidos on April 17, 2023, Celta de Vigo hosted Mallorca. It was a tightly contested game that saw Mallorca claim a narrow 1-0 victory, thanks to a goal by Amath Ndiaye, assisted by Antonio Jose Raillo Arenas in the first half.

The statistical data from the game present a perspicuous narrative of the ebb and flow of the encounter. Celta de Vigo was more prolific in terms of attempts on the target, registering a total of 3 shots on goal as opposed to Mallorca's 2. However, the accuracy of the attempts was a defining factor in the match, as evidenced by the only goal, scored by Mallorca in the first half, a testament to making the most of the opportunities presented.

The home team notably made numerous attempts off target, racking up 9, while Mallorca made 6. This demonstrates that while Celta de Vigo had more opportunities, they were unable to convert or effectively threaten the Mallorca goal.

In terms of set-piece potential, Celta de Vigo had the upper hand, winning 7 corner kicks as against Mallorca's 5. Yet again, effectiveness seemed to be Celta de Vigo's Achilles heel, as despite these set-piece opportunities, they failed to score.

Mallorca displayed a more physical brand of football, racking up 18 fouls compared to the home team's 10. Unfortunately for the home side, this culminated in a red card, putting them at a numerical disadvantage, hence hindering their capacity to compete on equal footing.

Discipline-wise, both teams showed moments of rashness with each team receiving a yellow card. Hugo Mallo Novegil from Celta de Vigo got his in the last ticks of the first half, while Manuel Morlanes Arino from Mallorca was cautioned in the second half.

Offside statistics show minimal differences between the two teams, with home side Celta de Vigo caught offside twice and Mallorca once. This suggests both teams were attempting to push boundaries and find the incisive pass but often pushed a little too far.

In the final analysis, Mallorca was more efficient, managing to capitalize on one of their two shots on target. Their disciplined defensive performance, coupled with the lethal precision in the attacking third, underlined their overall tactical superiority and underpinned their narrow win over Celta de Vigo.
