The match was notably physical, with both teams combining for a total of nine yellow cards. Latina Calcio's aggressive approach resulted in 15 fouls, surpassing Messina’s eight, indicating a strategy focused on disrupting Messina’s play. This excessive aggression may have disrupted the flow for Latina Calcio themselves, as they couldn't convert their early lead into a stronger advantage.

Teamwork was a decisive factor in this encounter. ACR Messina’s cohesive unit was reflected in their comeback, while Latina’s reliance on individual brilliance fell short after their early success.
