This match between US Monastir and Esperance Tunis was a tightly contested affair with considerable intensity seen from both teams. Despite playing on their home ground, US Monastir were outclassed in terms of scoring by Esperance Tunis, who managed to secure a hard-fought 2-1 win. However, in arguably a more aggressive display of football, there were seven yellow cards in total, four for US Monastir and three for Esperance Tunis, though luckily, it did not escalate to a red card for either team.

In terms of goal, Esperance Tunis led the game, scoring the first goal in the first half at 26 minutes, followed by a second in the early stages of the second half. This gave them a substantial 2-0 lead at the 88th-minute mark. It wasn't until five minutes later, that US Monastir was able to finally find the net despite being on their home turf. This late goal wasn't enough to salvage a win or even a draw for them, but it highlighted the potential for a comeback in future encounters.

The overall gameplay contrasted between both teams, with stronger offensive play coming from Esperance Tunis and more defensive, yet aggressive approach from US Monastir. Esperance's pivotal use of corner kicks, although less in number compared to Monastir (3 to 5), led to meaningful opportunities which they capitalized on.

On the disciplinary aspect, US Monastir suffered more yellow cards, four as compared to Esperance's three. These were predominantly given in the second half, suggesting a mounting frustration and possible lapses in discipline as the match progressed. However, neither team was deemed to cross the line sufficiently for a red card offense.

When it came to offsides, both teams played a rather disciplined game, with Esperance Tunis being called offside only once and US Monastir not being flagged offside at all. This is a testament to their structured play and adherence to the tactical strategy laid out by their respective coaches.

In conclusion, this match was won by Esperance Tunis not just based on goals scored but through their calculated play, disciplined defense, and efficient utilization of set pieces. However, bettors should consider the aggressive display by US Monastir as a sign of potential upsets in the future matches between these two teams.
