The match between Kotkan Tyovaen Palloilijat (KTP) and IFK Mariehamn ended in a tightly contested 2-2 draw, highlighting both teams' attacking and strategic balance. KTP showed strong determination to come back twice, particularly noticeable with their successful offensive adjustments in the second half, evident from their ability to double the number of goals scored compared to the first half. IFK Mariehamn started strong, with an early goal that set the tone for their aggressive play throughout the match.

Statistically, KTP dominated the set-piece opportunities with eight corner kicks compared to IFK Mariehamn's four. This control in set plays was pivotal in maintaining pressure on the visitors and creating goal-scoring opportunities. However, discipline-wise, KTP was slightly more troubled, committing three of the total four fouls in the match. Despite this, both teams shared a similar disciplinary burden with one yellow card each, reflecting a competitive but controlled aggression.

Offensively, KTP's offside count of four versus Mariehamn's two indicates a more aggressive forward line looking to capitalize on breakaway chances, even at the risk of mistiming their runs. The efficacy of KTP's forward presence was apparent as they managed to capitalize sufficiently, particularly in the second half. Meanwhile, Mariehamn's ability to level the score late in the match, despite having fewer corner kick opportunities, underscores their resilience and strategic execution under pressure, securing a draw against the hosts.
