In the Serie B match dated 07 June 2023 00:30 EEST, Ituano FC demonstrated dominant performance against Botafogo FC SP, winning the match 2-0. Although Botafogo pressed and appeared to be the more aggressive side based on the number of corner kicks (6 compared to Ituano's 5), their shots didn't translate into goals. Subpar execution in the final third was evident, indicating a lack of clinical finishing.

Strategically, Ituano played with precision. They didn't acquire any offside's throughout the match, indicating their accurate pass timing and space understanding. When compared to Botafogo's single offside, it indicates a higher level of discipline in their approach.

The 1st goal of Ituano came at 51:16 of the second half. It set the momentum for the team rather than the fouls or corner kicks. Their second goal secured their win at 69:11. Botafogo, despite having an extra corner kick chance, was unable to convert any into a viable goal-scoring opportunity, ultimately remaining scoreless.

There were some disciplinary issues in the game, with both teams equally receiving one yellow card each. Botafogo’s yellow card came notably late in the game at 82:28, while Ituano FC got theirs quite earlier at 17:49. These incidents didn't significantly impact each team's overall performance or the game's outcome.

Botafogo committed twice as many fouls as Ituano (4 to 2 respectively), which indicates a more aggressive, and possibly, disruptive gameplay by Botafogo. Valencia's more defensive play, with fewer fouls, and the absence of offsides also indicate a more disciplined, refined team approach to their tactics.

Overall, despite more corner kicks and aggressive play, Botafogo was effectively neutralized by Ituano’s good defense and superior ball control. Ituano’s disciplined, precise gameplay led to them scoring two goals, which were the definitive factor in their win against Botafogo. This match illustrates the importance of precision and disciplined gameplay over aggressive tactics.
