In a surprising turn of events during the 1st Division clash this past weekend, the Lyn Fotball team soundly defeated the IK Start with a comprehensive 4-1 victory. This match demonstrated a game where the away team displayed superior accuracy and efficient ball movement.

The key story of the game was the goals scored. Lyn Fotball achieved four impressive goals, starting notably early at 26 minutes 20 seconds into the first half. This initial lead took pressure off the away side, allowing them to enter the second half leading by 1-2. Subsequent goals at 45 minutes 19 seconds (1-3) and 48 minutes 58 seconds (1-4) in the second half sealed a clear victory for Lyn Fotball. In contrast, IK Start could only manage a single goal at the 31 minutes and 14 seconds mark, which was insufficient in the face of Lyn's attack.

An analysis of the teams' performance reveals the significant effect of not just goals but also set-pieces, particularly corner kicks, in determining the match outcome. The numerical superiority of Lyn Fotball's 6 corner kicks in comparison to IK Start's 2 indicates Lyn's effective possession and attacking intent.

A factor contributing to IK Start's defeat could be their disciplinary record during the match. They faced disciplinary issues with a single yellow card in the first half, and a red card that significantly reduced their tactical effectiveness. In contrast, Lyn Fotball managed to keep their discipline intact with no cards throughout the match.

In terms of rule violations, both teams had a relatively balanced record with IK Start committing 7 fouls and Lyn Fotball just behind with 8 fouls. In terms of offsides, IK Start was called out once while Lyn Fotball managed to stay free of any offside situation, showcasing their efficient and strategic play.

In conclusion, Lyn Fotball’s victory can be credited to their effective striking force resulting in early goals, mastery in set pieces demonstrated by superior corner kick statistics, and commendable discipline on the field. On the other hand, IK Start's performance was hampered by their failure to convert opportunities into goals, lack of discipline leading to penal cards, and not fully utilising set-pieces, which reflects in their corner kick count.
