In this intense Serie D clash between Sousa EC and Treze PB, the match's outcome was largely defined by a combination of early scoring momentum and defensive resilience from the away team. Treze PB managed to secure a narrow 1-0 victory with an early goal at the 15:26 mark of the first half. This singular goal proved to be decisive, as the away team's defense held firm under pressure for the remainder of the match. Treze PB’s ability to score early disrupted the home team's strategy and they effectively maintained their lead throughout the game.

Statistical insights highlight Sousa EC's dominance in terms of offensive opportunities, notably with eight corner kicks compared to Treze PB's solitary corner. Despite this, the inability of Sousa EC to convert these set-piece opportunities into goals was critical. The home team's offensive efforts were often thwarted, either through Treze's compact defense or Sousa's lack of precision, with several shots off target. The away team’s defense, though tested, maintained organization and discipline, crucially avoiding any game-changing errors despite being frequently challenged.

On the discipline front, Treze PB's five yellow cards indicated a physically engaging and somewhat aggressive approach to protect their narrow lead. While this aggressive style risked disciplinary repercussions, it succeeded in disrupting Sousa's attacking flow without conceding a red card. As for Sousa, the single yellow card suggests a more measured approach, but they were unable to capitalize on the relative discipline disparity. The professionalism of Treze PB’s goalkeeper and defenders in high-pressure situations, including dealing with set-pieces, was key in maintaining their clean sheet and ultimately securing the victory.
