Analysis:

In a closely contested Swiss Cup match between FC Aarau and FC Winterthur, the slight edge ultimately went to the visitors, Winterthur, who emerged as victors with a scoreline of 2-1. Both teams displayed commendable performance, making it a closely fought match, evident from the almost equal possession stats with FC Winterthur holding a slight edge of 51%.

FC Aarau’s single goal came in the second half, providing them an initial lead. However, this did not prove to be enough as their counterparts topped this with two successful shots on target out of a total of five attempts, as compared to Aarau's four. In addition, Winterthur’s tactical prowess was demonstrated by their efficient use of assists converting one of these into a goal.

Defensively, both teams held strong with each boasting of three goalkeeper saves. Nevertheless, FC Aarau conceded slightly more corner kicks, four in comparison to Winterthur’s two. This indicates that FC Winterthur’s defence was more successful in pressing the opposing attackers and directing their shots away from the net. This directly contributed to their overall success in the match.

The number of offsides committed by each team is indicative of their playing styles. FC Winterthur committed two offside offences while FC Aarau only one. This might be a strong indicator of Winterthur’s relatively aggressive offensive play and is reflective of their eventual victory.

In summary, despite FC Aarau’s commendable efforts, FC Winterthur’s superior ability to convert on-target shots into goals resulted in their victory. The home team's slightly more defensive play style, combined with the away team's effective attacking strategy demonstrated by their assists and offsides, led to the outcome of the match, making FC Winterthur the deserved winners. Despite the lack of disciplinary actions in the form of red or yellow cards, the match was competitive and fair.
