In a 1st Division matchup on October 29, 2023, Umea FC hosted Orebro Syrianska IF. Despite a dominating performance in terms of corner kicks, the home side was unable to capitalize and eventually fell 0-1 against their visiting opponents.

Let's dive into the statistics to understand how this surprising result came to be.

The game's only goal came from Orebro Syrianska IF, just before the half-hour mark, at 28 minutes and 49 seconds. This early lead applied pressure on Umea FC which they failed to overcome throughout the entirety of the match.

The discipline of both teams seemed to degrade in the second half, with three yellow cards being shown by the referee. Orebro Syrianska IF was the first to get cautioned at 56 minutes and 7 seconds, followed by a second one at 63 minutes and 24 seconds. Meanwhile, Umea FC received a single yellow card at 92 minutes and 27 seconds.

Notably, Umea FC completely dominated corner kick stats with a total of eight corners, in stark contrast to Orebro Syrianska IF who had none. However, Umea's inability to convert these into scoring chances was a key factor in the match outcome.

Both teams had an equal number of offsides, one apiece. This suggests that neither team was significantly more aggressive or tactically adventurous in their forward play.

In conclusion, the game was characterized by a single decisive goal by Orebro Syrianska IF in the first half and a lack of conversion from Umea FC. The discipline issues encountered by both teams particularly in the second half, could have potentially impacted the rhythm and flow of the game. Nonetheless, the defining factor of this matchup was the inability of Umea FC to capitalize on their significant advantage in corner kicks. Their failure to do so resulted in a home defeat despite an otherwise balanced game in terms of discipline and offside infringements.
