This Serie A match got off to a dramatic start, as Deportivo Cuenca quickly took the lead, scoring their single goal of the match only 30 minutes into the first half. It was quite a shock for the home team FC Libertad. However, the home team dramatically turned the tables in the second half, scoring three goals to secure a 3-1 victory.

When analyzing the closely-matched corner kicks, both teams tied with three each, indicating an equal level of aggressiveness and offensive strategies from both sides. However, the successful implementation varied, as reflected in the goal count.

Two critical moments likely contributed heavily towards FC Libertad’s comeback. The first goal for FC Libertad came in at the 56-minute mark of the second half, which must have sparked a degree of confidence and momentum. The second goal, to give the home team the lead, came just six minutes after at the 62-minute mark, indicating excellent subsistence of pressure on Deportivo Cuenca. The third and securing goal came late in the second half around the 83-minute mark, thereby cementing FC Libertad's lead, making it impossible for Deportivo Cuenca to level up.

There was certainly a lack of discipline from the away team, with a total of five yellow cards recorded, three of which were given in the second half. The lack of discipline could have contributed to Deportivo Cuenca's dampened performance, providing FC Libertad with more opportunities to press their advantage. In comparison, the home team did a better job of staying relatively disciplined, receiving only two yellow cards, one each in the first and second half.

Though not known precisely when the substitutions were made, their likely impact can't be disregarded. A well-timed substitution can dramatically change the tempo of the game by injecting new energy into the team or bringing in a player with the right skill set needed at that particular situation. FC Libertad's coach seems to have played the substitution card effectively for this match.

Finally, it's worth noting there were no red cards shown during the match, indicating that, despite the high count of yellow cards, the game didn't escalate into overly-aggressive challenges that might have resulted in sending offs.

In general, after a challenging first half, FC Libertad demonstrated superior discipline and impressive resilience. Their ability to seize their moments in the second half was commendable and most likely gave them the decisive edge in this well-contested match. Their stronger discipline and overall control of the game in the second half was a clear difference-maker.
