The match between FC Aktobe and Legia Warsaw in the UEFA Europa League qualification turned out to be a tightly contested encounter, with Legia securing a narrow 1-0 victory. Legia's ability to convert one of their seven shots on target was pivotal, with Juergen Farid Elitim Sepulveda scoring in the second half after 91 minutes, thanks to an assist by Kacper Chodyna. In contrast, FC Aktobe struggled in front of goal, managing four shots on target, all of which were saved by Legia's goalkeeper, demonstrating his crucial role in maintaining their lead.

Team discipline and defensive strategies played a significant role in shaping the outcome. FC Aktobe's buildup was frequently disrupted by fouls, leading to three yellow cards and disrupting their rhythm, particularly after the first yellow card shown to Daniyar Usenov. On the other hand, Legia Warsaw maintained composure, avoiding any yellow cards, which allowed them to execute their game plan more effectively without the interruptions of disciplinary actions.

Throughout the match, both teams displayed a similar attacking mindset, as evidenced by an equal number of shots off target (ten each). FC Aktobe's propensity to attack was also reflected in winning four corner kicks compared to Legia's two. However, Aktobe's three offsides indicated occasional lapses in timing during attacking plays, which hindered their effectiveness. Legia's organization in defense, with no offsides conceded, illustrates their well-disciplined backline and ability to cope with FC Aktobe's pressing forward play, ultimately securing their clean sheet and the match victory.
