In the international friendlies match held on the 23rd of March 2023, Honduras emerged as the victorious side taking away a clean victory with a one-goal lead against El Salvador. It was a tightly contested match, however, the goal scored by Honduras in the first half created the difference.

One of the crucial factors leading to this result was the higher number of shots on target from Honduras (5) compared to El Salvador’s 3 shots on target. Despite El Salvador's efforts, they struggled to convert their opportunities into goals, evidenced by their equal number of off-target shots (5) like Honduras.

While El Salvador made only two substitutions throughout the game, Honduras made use of all three of its chances which allowed them to sustain their lead obtained in the first half. The fresh legs could have contributed significantly to the defensive stability of Honduras as they managed to prevent any goal from El Salvador.

El Salvador registered more corner kicks (4) compared to Honduras (3). Usually, corner kicks can be a crucial scoring opportunity, however, in this match, they failed to capitalize on them, thus indicating a potential area of improvement.

Both teams put forth a commendable defensive display as the home and away teams' goalkeepers made 4 and 3 saves respectively. While no yellow or red cards were issued to either side, indicating a clean game, the teams had almost the same number of fouls, with Honduras committing one more foul than El Salvador.

A small but potentially decisive advantage that Honduras had was in the offsides category, where El Salvador was flagged offsides once while Honduras was flagged twice. This could have disrupt the flow and rhythm of El Salvador's attack.

Overall, while the teams were quite equally matched on paper, the decisive factors as suggested by the data were the superior shots on target and the effective substitution strategy by Honduras. El Salvador's inability to capitalize on their corner kicks also seems to have contributed to their loss. Their performance indicated potential areas for improvement including accuracy in landing shots on target and a more effective game strategy in utilising set-pieces.
