In the First League clash between FK Hebar Pazardzhik and PFC Beroe Stara Zagora on June 5, it was the home side, FK Hebar Pazardzhik that claimed the victory with a 3-1 scoreline. A statistical analysis of the match shows the Pazardzhik outfit's effectiveness in front of the goal and strict discipline on the field the key ingredients for their triumph.

Although the match stayed goalless for the better part of the first half, FK Hebar Pazardzhik broke the stalemate late at 42nd-minute mark, taking a 1-0 lead into the break. The substantial period of goalless play can in some ways be attributed to both teams' defensive discipline. However, note that this was subsequently followed by three second-half goals, indicating possibly a more attacking formation or increased intensity from both sides in the second half.

PFC Beroe Stara Zagora managed to pull back an equalizer at the 81st minute, but their joy was short-lived as Pazardzhik netted twice more within the next 14 minutes, securing a decisively triumphant 3-1 finish.

Now, moving onto discipline and fouls: The home team was penalized with three yellow cards while the away team picked up five yellows and one red card. The high number of bookings, especially for the away side, quite rightly indicates both their defensive difficulties and a lack of discipline. With most yellow cards coming late in the second half, including a red card, this disruptive rhythm arguably factored significantly into Beroe Stara Zagora's downfall.

In regard to ball possession, FK Hebar Pazardzhik recorded five corner kicks to Beroe's two, supporting the conclusion that the home team dominated in this area. However, an here's interesting piece of data; incredibly, only six fouls were called throughout the entire game between both sides (four for Pazardzhik and two for Beroe). This low figure may be an indicator of a rather clean, free-flowing game, belying the number of bookings made especially towards the end.

In conclusion, FK Hebar Pazardzhik's victory was primarily achieved through clinical finishing (three out of five corners converted into goals) and maintaining better discipline on the pitch, as compared to their counterparts. Meanwhile, for Beroe, the high card count, particularly in the second half, disrupted their rhythm and could have resulted in their inability to capitalize after equalizing. On the whole, better focus on maintaining discipline might be a crucial improvement area for PFC Beroe Stara Zagora in their forthcoming matches.
