In this Ykkonen clash between FC Jazz Pori and KuPS Akatemia, FC Jazz Pori triumphed with a narrow 2-1 victory. The match started with high intensity, as FC Jazz secured an early lead just before the 20th minute mark, only for KuPS Akatemia to equalize shortly after the 11th minute. The decisive factor was FC Jazz's resilience in the second half, finding a crucial goal at 58 minutes, which proved to be the match-winner.

Team dynamics played a vital role, with FC Jazz Pori managing to outmaneuver the visiting team by capitalizing on their second-half opportunities. Despite KuPS Akatemia earning twice as many corner kicks as their opponents, they struggled to convert these set pieces into goals, showcasing a lack of efficiency where it mattered. Conversely, FC Jazz's ability to maintain a compact defense during these moments, while executing strategic substitutions, helped them safeguard their lead.

Additionally, discipline was a significant factor impacting the game. Despite being penalized with two yellow cards, FC Jazz Pori maintained composure under pressure. KuPS Akatemia, with fewer disciplinary actions, might have had cleaner play but failed to leverage this advantage. The offsides count, with FC Jazz caught thrice compared to KuPS Akatemia's single occurrence, indicates the home team’s aggressive forward play, which, though risky, led to a well-deserved victory.
