The tightly contested game between FC Cartagena and Levante on 25th August 2023 from Segunda Division brought a narrow win for the latter through a solitary goal, leading them to bag three points. The match was highlighted by its physicality and tactical maneuvering, as reflected in the statistics provided.

Levante showcased their superiority early on with a quick goal in the first half at the 25th minute, setting the tempo for the rest of the match. Outmaneuvering FC Cartagena, it was a well-delivered drive against the flow of play that gave Levante the lead. This early lead allowed Levante to focus on defending that scoreline, which manifested in the subsequent pattern of play.

An impressive 12 corner-kicks attempted by the Levante alludes to their dominance in the attacking half and their maintained offensive pressure throughout the game. Their forward play was instrumental in keeping FC Cartagena on the defensive, which is echoed in the former's solitary corner kicks and a solitary offside committed by each team.

The teams were evenly matched in terms of fouls committed (8 by Levante vs. 7 by FC Cartagena). However, a divergent trend was observed in the case of disciplinary action. Levante received 6 of the 10 yellow cards brandished in the match, indicating a possibly aggressive and error-prone defensive scheme compared to FC Cartagena with 4 yellow cards. Despite this, neither team had a member sent off, allowing them to maintain their formations and strategies at full strength.

FC Cartagena showed a sub-par offensive performance that could be due to Levante's stifling defense. It was unable to convert any of their corner attempts, and was unable to make any significant progressions into Levante's half evident from the single offside instance against them.

In conclusion, Levante's early goal, assertive gameplay, and continued pressure on FC Cartagena were the defining factors contributing to their win, enabling them to hold off the latter's attacks and maintain a clean sheet. Despite their greater yellow card count, it was their well-strategized defensive and offensive plays that secured them the victory. On the other hand, FC Cartagena's lack of attacking prowess and a more restrained play style resulted in them being unable to equalize that early goal by Levante.
