This coverage is written to provide a professional and in-depth review of the NIFL Premiership match between FC Carrick Rangers and Glentoran FC based on a wealth of statistical data gathered from the match on the 30th of September 2023. The match witnessed three goals in total, with FC Carrick Rangers coming from behind to edge past Glentoran FC with a 2-1 score.

As always, the game's crucial turning points rest in the goals. Glentoran FC's potential for an away win can be traced back to the early goal they got during the first 3 minutes and 17 seconds of the match. However, the rhythm of the match changed drastically in the second half when FC Carrick Rangers managed to slingshot from a 0-1 to a 2-1 status in mere minutes between the 68th and 70th.

Interestingly, the yellow cards distribution in this game potentially suggests a correlation with the match's performance shift. Pressure can be presumed on Glentoran FC defense that was evident by their first yellow card during the initial 28 minutes of the game.

Nevertheless, FC Carrick Rangers received their couple of yellow cards in the 85th minute - a period typically associated with teams trying to secure their lead. Furthermore, Glentoran FC received another booking in the 93rd minute - possibly out of desperation while fighting to equalize the score.

Though both teams managed to avoid red cards and any potential dismissals, it was the yellow cards' timing and placement that further emphasized the levels of pressure present in the different stages of the match.

Another noteworthy aspect is the disparity in corner kicks. Glentoran FC tallied a total of eight corner kicks compared to FC Carrick Rangers' three. Hence, despite their early goal, it's clear that Glentoran FC were continuously trying to penetrate the home team's defense. However, they could not manage to capitalize on these opportunities, unlike their opponents who managed to take advantage of crucial moments despite fewer corner kicks.

In conclusion, the numerical features of the game underscore a tale of hustle and hard-fought victory by the home team. Even though they were at the backfoot, FC Carrick Rangers turned the game around in the second half. More than just a win, this match serves as a vital lesson pointing to the importance of situational awareness and capitalizing on opportunities when they arise. Even with fewer corner kicks and an initial deficit, FC Carrick Rangers managed to take their chances when it mattered. Conversely, Glentoran FC's inability to convert their superior corner kick tally and early lead into a win will be something they'll examine critically in their upcoming strategy sessions.
