This match saw Pendikspor claim a victory, taking down Konyaspor with a 2-1 win during their recent Super Lig encounter. Although an evenly contested match on some levels, diving into it from a statistical perspective can provide some enlightening viewpoints on the performance of the teams and the crucial factors that had the most impact on the match's outcome.

Both teams demonstrated efficiency in their offensive effort, evident in the low offside count for both teams, with Konyaspor clocking 6 and Pendikspor 5. However, Pendikspor managed to convert their possession into more meaningful opportunities leading to goals.

Konyaspor did not quite manage to get the most out of their 5 corner kicks unlike Pendikspor who scored their first goal from one of their two corner kicks, showing their efficiency in converting set-pieces.

The crucial turning point was the back-to-back yellow cards that Pendikspor received in the 78th and 81st minutes. Inspite of this, they managed to score their second goal during this period of high pressure, showing remarkable resilience and an ability to handle adverse game situations.

The disciplinary aspect of the match seems to have played a considerable role too. Pendikspor committed more fouls (7) compared to Konyaspor's 2, and notching up 3 yellow cards as opposed to Konyaspor's single yellow card. However, this did not deter them from maintaining their game flow and does underline their aggressive style of play.

In conclusion, given the equal opportunities both teams had to convert, it was Pendikspor's effective use of their chances combined with their ability to handle pressure that proved decisive. Their victory can also be attributed to resilience shown after receiving multiple yellow cards and fouls by not losing their composure, which underlines their competitiveness and strong mental game. Konyaspor on the other hand, will need to reassess their strategies for future games, and work on improving their efficacy in set-piece situations, and handling pressure during key moments in the game.
