In the 1st Division face-off that took place on May 12, 2023, at 17:00 EEST, Falkenbergs FF was victorious over the home team Vanersborgs IF in a stingy 1-0 win. The home team Vanersborgs IF was unable to penetrate the opposing team's defense, marked by failure to register any goals.

The early goal scored by Falkenbergs FF just 4 minutes and 36 seconds into the first half ultimately defined the pace and outcome of the match. Falkenbergs FF's early advantage put the home team on a defensive stance, which is reflected in the noticeably low fouls committed by the home side, just 2 compared to 4 by Falkenbergs.

The prediction that Vanersborgs IF exerted significant defensive efforts is further corroborated by the relatively low number of corner kicks they had, totaling just 3 in comparison with Falkenbergs FF's 7. This indicates not only the defensive stance of the home team but also the aggressive and determined attack strategy applied by Falkenbergs FF.

Falkenbergs FF’s assertive gameplay is also observable in other parameters of the match, such as offsides. The away team had a single instance of being offside compared to Vanersborgs IF having none, which suggests Falkenbergs FF’s continuous efforts to get behind Vanersborgs IF's defensive lines.

However, Falkenbergs FF's aggressive gameplay also translated into disciplinary sanctions. They received 3 yellow cards in the second half, the first of which came in at 59 minutes and 16 seconds. Despite putting them at a relative disadvantage, it didn’t dampen their spirits as they were able to maintain their lead till the game's conclusion without any red cards.

Looking closely at the games’ statistics, it is clear that the early goal by Falkenbergs FF was the key decisive factor, and their success in maintaining their lead was supported by the relentless pressure they placed on the home team. On the flip side, the home team's inability to breach Falkenbergs FF's defense and their lack of effective counter-attacks were notably the reasons behind their defeat. The match's outcome was significantly influenced by Falkenbergs FF’s aggressive yet disciplined approach and strategic defence that despite receiving sanctions, prevented the home team from equaling or bettering their scoreline.
