The Belarusian Cup bout between Gasovik Vitebsk and FC Vitebsk resulted in a convincing victory for FC Vitebsk with a final score of 3-1. This consequently signified a dismal day for the home side Gasovik Vitebsk.

The critical part of the narrative for this match laid out in the first half where FC Vitebsk demonstrated their dominance by netting three goals. The first goal came just at 8 minutes and 30 seconds, followed by the second at the 19-minute mark, and the third at 31st minute. It wasn't until the 89th minute when Gasovik Vitebsk finally managed to get on the board, but by then it was too little, too late.

A key statistical highlight was the accounted number of corner kicks, an indicator of the offensive pressure a team is putting on their opponents. FC Vitebsk won significantly more corner kicks (7) compared to Gasovik Vitebsk (1), which showcased FC Vitebsk's consistent presence in the opposition's half.

Discipline-wise both teams drew caution from the referee with Gasovik Vitebsk receiving two yellow cards, while FC Vitebsk was given one. Although with no red cards being issued, it suggests that while the game was energetic, it was not overly aggressive in nature.

One other statistic that stood out was offsides, with FC Vitebsk being flagged nine times. However, despite their relatively high number of offsides, they managed to capitalize on their opportunities, scoring three goals. This data suggests a potential high-risk, high-reward strategy by FC Vitebsk.

Meanwhile, the home team might need to work on their game strategy considering their only goal came late into the second half, and their only corner kick and one offside signal that they had few opportunities to score.

In conclusion, FC Vitebsk's early lead and their overall offensive pressure evident from the 7 corner kicks was the primary difference-maker in this match. Their aggressive style might have resulted in numerous offside decisions, but it also gave them plenty of opportunities to score. On the flip side, Gasovik Vitebsk was less imposing offensively, as shown by their lower shot opportunities and their solitary, though late, goal.
