Match: Angostura FC vs Estudiantes de Merida FC

In an exciting game that ultimately saw Estudiantes de Merida FC come out on top, the players and spectators were kept on tenterhooks till the last minute of the game. Taking a deep dive into the statistics, this match was defined by aggressive play, effective set pieces and a high-tempo game, which was reflected in the high number of yellow cards, 7 given to the away team and 2 to the home team.

Estudiantes de Merida FC took the lead early on in the game at 36:37 minutes in the first half, only to be pulled back at 46:01 of the second half by a recharged Angostura side. The continuous back-and-forth persisted throughout the match, climaxing at 1:33:18 minutes when Estudiantes scored the winning goal.

The game was equally balanced in terms of corner kicks, as both teams had four each. These set pieces were a significant component of both team's tactics and had a substantial impact on the match's ebb and flow. However, it's noteworthy that Angostura FC didn't go offside in the entire match, demonstrating disciplined team play in contrast to Estudiantes de Merida FC, who were caught offside five times. This shows the high defensive line Angostura played and the aggressive attacking intent of the Merida side, which was fruitful in the end.

Aggression was the order of the day, with Estudiantes accumulating seven yellow cards, possibly due to their robust and tenacious play style. Angostura FC wasn't entirely innocent either, earning two yellow cards themselves. This aggressiveness from both teams was also mirrored in the fouls, with each team committing one.

Despite the flurry of yellow cards and the aggressive play, both teams managed to keep all players on the pitch, as there were no red cards shown in the game.

However, it was Estudiantes de Merida FC's ability to convert their chances and score that pivotal early goal which set the tone for the rest of the game. Equally, effective management of the offside trap by Angostura FC was also beneficial but was insufficient as they couldn't keep Estudiantes from scoring that decisive third goal.

In conclusion, this match was shaped by several noteworthy statistical factors and events. From the yellow cards, offside, and the equally distributed corner kicks to the goals scored, each team displayed intense determination, tactical robustness, and competitive spirit. However, it was Estudiantes de Merida FC that showcased superior effectiveness in front of the goal, which ultimately decided the match's outcome.
