In a tightly contested Segunda Division match on 21 August 2024, Atletico La Cruz secured a narrow yet significant 1-0 victory over Fundacion AIFI. The pivotal moment came shortly after half-time, as the home team capitalized on an opportunity at the 46:40 mark, which ultimately turned out to be the game's sole goal. This early second-half goal set the tempo for Atletico La Cruz, shifting the pressure onto the away team to respond.

Despite possessing fewer corner kicks (2 for Atletico La Cruz vs. 1 for Fundacion AIFI), the home team displayed superior efficiency in capitalizing on set-piece opportunities. The lone goal indicates an excellent conversion rate compared to Fundacion AIFI, which failed to make its single corner count. This disparity in set-piece efficiency was a crucial determinant of the final outcome.

Fundacion AIFI’s discipline issues also exacerbated their difficulties on the pitch. Accumulating two yellow cards, the first at the 42:06 mark in the first half, Fundacion AIFI struggled to maintain composure and momentum. In contrast, Atletico La Cruz maintained a cleaner disciplinary record, avoiding any bookings. This difference in discipline allowed Atletico La Cruz to play more freely and assertively as the game unfolded.

Substitutions and fouls, often significant in altering match dynamics, did not play a notable role in this encounter. The primary factors influencing the match outcome were the efficient execution of a key opportunity by Atletico La Cruz and their superior discipline. These factors, combined, underscore why Atletico La Cruz emerged victorious in this competitive Segunda Division fixture.
