In the 2. Bundesliga matchup on the 29th of January, St. Pauli narrowly secured a victory over 1. FC Nurnberg at 0-1. It was a tightly contested match as the statistical data indicates, but St. Pauli's early goal in the first half ultimately determined the outcome of the match.
St. Pauli outperformed Nurnberg in terms of scoring, with the only goal of the match secured at the 32:35 mark in the first half. Nurnberg's inability to deliver any goals in spite of their efforts is likely a key factor in their defeat.
The distribution of yellow cards showcases a slightly more aggressive game style from St. Pauli with a total of 2 yellow cards compared to Nurnberg's 1. Interestingly, the yellow cards were all given in the latter part of the match, with St. Pauli's first at 00:26:04 into the game, while Nurnberg's and St.Pauli's second came extremely late in the match, indicating an intense and desperate final few minutes from both sides.
Nurnberg, despite being the home team and losing, created more offside situations. A total of 2 offsides from Nurnberg indicates some desperate and perhaps impatient attempts to score, compared to St. Pauli who managed to maintain their discipline and not fall into offside traps, accumulating a total of zero offsides during the match.
In terms of corner kicks, both sides were equal, with 2 corner kicks each. This indicates an evenly balanced match in terms of territorial gameplay and attacking threats from wide areas. However, these efforts didn’t make a significant difference to the final score for either team.
Overall, both teams maintained a high level of performance with considerable discipline in avoiding red cards altogether. However, the difference in victory came down to St. Pauli's ability to convert their effort into an actual goal and their success in preventing Nurnberg from making successful offensive strikes. The strong defensive play from St.Pauli held Nurnberg at bay, revealing why perhaps they couldn't find the back of the net - even with their home ground advantage.
In light of the data collected, bettors should take note of St. Pauli's efficient offense and strong defence as they compare future matches. This match has demonstrated that even when the gameplay is balanced in many aspects, one successful goal conversion can determine the winner in a tightly contested tie.
