FK Borac Banja Luka's victory over NK Olimpija Ljubljana in the UEFA Conference League was a testament to their effective use of set-pieces, notably corner kicks. The home team secured nine corners compared to Olimpija's single corner kick, exploiting these set-pieces to maintain pressure and eventually find the back of the net. The winning goal, scored early in the second half, was a product of sustained attacking play aided by these opportunities.

Defensive resilience was another cornerstone of Borac Banja Luka's performance, as evidenced by their ability to keep a clean sheet despite conceding 15 fouls. While they received one yellow card for their troubles, it was the away side’s indiscipline that proved costly. Olimpija Ljubljana's two yellow cards, followed by a crucial red card later in the match, left them short-handed and less able to defend against Borac's persistent attacks.

Teamwork and composure under pressure defined this match's outcome. While both teams were relatively evenly matched in terms of fouls, Borac Banja Luka's cohesive teamwork ensured they could withstand Olimpija's challenges without compromising their discipline. Olimpija's lack of cohesion not only cost them a player due to disciplinary infractions but also limited their ability to match Borac's strategic approach, thereby sealing their fate.
