In the Segunda Federacion match held on 25 March 2023 at 17:00 EEST, Utebo CF and SD Gernika Club battled it out with fierce rivalry but eventually settled for a goal-less draw. Despite both teams going all guns blazing, neither side could break the deadlock in 90 minutes.

The intensity of the battle could convincingly be seen from the six yellow cards issued – three for each team. The first yellow card was shown to the away team in the first half at 00:16:53 urging them to be cautious early in the game. However, the tempo didn't drop, and Utebo CF also got booked at 00:30:17, leading to a heightened cautious first half. The second half saw a more cautious display with both teams not wanting to be down to ten men. SD Gernika Club got booked twice in the second half, at 00:55:15 and later at 01:27:07. Similarly, the home side received two yellow cards in the second half at 01:07:34 and then at 01:29:14 showing a relentless effort to push for the winner.

The match statistics show that Utebo CF was arguably the more assertive team in terms of attacking opportunities, as they earned six corner kicks against only two for the SD Gernika Club. Such numbers indicate their dominance in the attacking third of the pitch. However, it was the lack of precision in the final shot that led to the goal-less draw, highlighting the strong defences of the two teams.

One interesting statistic is the away team's five offsides - evidence of the team's high pressing tactics and the home side's successful offside trap. The unusual high number of offsides can imply that SD Gernika Club's attacking players were consistently trying to sneak through Utebo CF's defence, which unfortunately for them, managed to stay disciplined.

In conclusion, even though both teams played with high intensity and created ample opportunities, the closely contested match ended in a draw. This game was a clear demonstration of each team's sturdy defence and vigilant match referee. Lack of conversion from the home team's corner kicks and the tighter game plan of the visiting team were major factors influencing the final scoreline. The teams will undoubtedly look back at these data points to work on their strategy for the upcoming fixtures.
