In the National League clash on the 20th April 2024, Dagenham and Redbridge drew 3-3 with Aldershot Town FC in a match filled with breakneck changes of fortunes for both teams. The three goals apiece reflected a shared dominance, with both teams showcasing their ability to penetrate the defence of their opponent.
Dagenham and Redbridge embarked on the match aggressively, scoring the first goal at 33 minutes into the first half. However, their momentum was hampered by Aldershot Town FC's comeback in the second half, with two successive goals at 49 and 72 minutes. Notably, Aldershot Town FC’s equalizer came almost immediately after the start of the second half. Dagenham and Redbridge, however, were persistent, netting two more goals at the 82nd and 93rd minute before Aldershot Town FC's last-minute equalizer in the 97th minute.
While both teams displayed strong attacking prowess with a total of six successful shots - three each, the more defensively disciplined Dagenham and Redbridge were able to follow up on the opponent's offside three times, against the Aldershot Town FC’s single offside.
In the matter of set-pieces, Aldershot Town FC outperformed Dagenham and Redbridge with eight corner kicks against the five by their opponents - this greater number of scoring opportunities could explain their ability to overcome the early deficit and draw the match.
However, discipline was a significant concern for the Aldershot Town FC, who accrued two more yellow cards than the home team. The accumulation of three yellow cards suggests a possible lack of composure from Aldershot players, compared to only one yellow card from the home team.
The lack of red cards from either side means neither team had to play with a man short, thus the result was determined purely on 11 vs. 11 basis.
In conclusion, this was an evenly matched encounter, with both teams showing their attacking strengths. The key differential was set-pieces, where Aldershot Town FC demonstrated superiority, and disciplinary record, where Dagenham and Redbridge were more robust. While bettors would find this match unpredictable, the data points to an area requiring improvement for Aldershot Town FC, namely discipline, and for Dagenham and Redbridge’s ability to capitalize on corner kicks.
