This coverage analysis focuses on the Serie B match between home team Sampdoria and FC Sudtirol on April 13, 2024. The match was a display of defensive prowess from FC Sudtirol, who managed to secure a 1-0 victory against Sampdoria.
From the statistics provided, FC Sudtirol's single goal in the second half, 48:48 into the game was the defining factor. Despite the home advantage, Sampdoria failed to convert any opportunities into goals, even with more corner kick opportunities. Overall, Sampdoria had 7 corner kicks compared to Sudtirol's 5, but lacked the final finish to convert these advantageous positions into goals.
Analyzing further, the number of infringements committed by both teams shows a significant difference. Sudtirol committed a considerable amount of fouls (12) compared to Sampdoria's 7. Sudtirol's aggressive approach is further reinforced by the number of yellow cards they received. They collected 3 yellow cards which shows they were under pressure and played defensively to secure their lead.
Interestingly, despite Sampdoria's dominance in corner kicks, they were caught offside more often than Sudtirol - 3 offsides compared to Sudtirol's 1. This shows that Sampdoria was trying to push up and score—but their attempts were often overeager, resulting in offsides.
Given these stats, the most significant factor that influenced the outcome of the match was the early goal scored in the second half by Sudtirol. After gaining the lead, they switched to a defensive approach, sacrificing flamboyant play for a sturdy defence and trying to draw fouls to break play—and it worked.
In conclusion, Sampdoria's attempts to penetrate the staunch defence of Sudtirol and equalize proved futile, leading to a victory for Sudtirol. The lack of goals from Sampdoria, in spite of their dominance in corner kicks and Sudtirol's defensive play along with well-baited offsides, were key parameters defining the match.
