A tensely contested Segunda Division encounter played on 24th June 2023 saw Atenas San Carlos face Uruguay Montevideo FC. The lack of goals at the hosting end had less to do with an absence of attempts than a shortfall in finishing, as the match statistics reveal. Despite Atenas’s 3 shots on target (with 2 sailing off target), the home team couldn't penetrate the goal of Montevideo FC, who registered 5 shots on target and reverberated the net once.

While San Carlos registered only slightly fewer shots on target, their goalkeeper proved incongruously busier; he made 4 saves compared to the away keeper’s three. This data underscores the more significant threat posed by Montevideo’s offensive efforts. Interestingly, both sides received no yellow or red cards suggesting a game that, despite the number of fouls (12 by San Carlos and 10 by Montevideo), was relatively clean in terms of carded offenses.

San Carlos sought equal footing through their set pieces, evidencing by 8 crosses and 5 corners; 3 more than Montevideo’s 5 crosses and 3 corners. However, the hosts failed to capitalize on these opportunities. Another notable factor was the distribution of offsides. San Carlos accrued only 1, while Montevideo drew the assistant referee’s flag twice, reflecting the visitor's more aggressive vertical play.

Despite having one assist, San Carlos were unable to make it count into a goal. The three substitutions made by both teams suggests each coach's intent to alter the game tactically, but in the end, it was the one accurate strike from Montevideo in the first half that made the difference. The game's outcome underlines the importance of clinical execution in the final third and effectiveness in front of the goal- aspects where Montevideo proved superior.
