In a thrilling clash between Eintracht Frankfurt and Augsburg, the home team established their superiority with a 3-1 victory in the Bundesliga on April 19, 2024. The home team gave something of a masterclass in efficiency in front of the net, while Augsburg had a statistical misalignment when it came to fouls and goals.
Augsburg took an early lead in the first half with a goal in the 13th minute, however, Frankfurt's offensive prowess became evident in the second half as they scored all three of their goals within the span of 41 minutes. The goal from Augsburg possibly gave them a sense of false security as Frankfurt held them at bay for the rest of the match.
Interestingly, Frankfurt needed only one more corner than Augsburg to score three times their goal count, with six corner kicks awarded to them to the five of the away team. This statistic, in particular, underscores the effectiveness Frankfurt's set-piece strategy compared to Augsburg.
In terms of discipline, both teams were on a par as both suffered three yellow cards. The second half became noticeably scrappy as all the cautionary cards were shown post half-time. However, Augsburg might need to take a good look at their match discipline - their foul count stood staggeringly high at 19 as opposed to Frankfurt’s 3. This may have caused interruptions to their game flow and provided Frankfurt with opportunities to regroup and re-strategise.
While both teams were caught offside a few times, with Augsburg slightly more at a count of 2 to Frankfurt's 1, it was clearly not a deciding factor in this match.
In conclusion, the three main statistical points of this match revolve around the efficiency of Frankfurt's attack as evidenced by the goal to corner ratio, the imbalance in discipline displayed by Augsburg for an escalating foul count, and the timing of Frankfurt's goals that capitalized on possible complacency from the away side. Those factors contributed significantly to the match outcome, playing key roles in swinging the match in Frankfurt's favour.
