In the Liga 1 night fixture on 22nd July 2023 played at 00:45 EEST, home team Cienciano del Cusco edged CD Sport Huancayo with only a single goal making the difference. The game ended 1-0 in favor of Cienciano del Cusco.

With the only netting happening early in the first half at 31:53, the rest of the game was characterized by robust defense from both teams, which could be attributed to the number of offenses committed. The away team, CD Sport Huancayo, received two yellow cards in the first half, at 11:21 and 44:51, respectively. This early aggression indicated their struggle to contain the home team's offensive prowess. The home team, however, didn't escape unscathed either, obtaining their first yellow card in the closing seconds of the first half at 45:37 and getting an additional 2 yellow cards in the second half.

Analyzing the spatial data, it was clear that Cienciano del Cusco kept control of the match, with 8 corner kicks compared to CD Sport Huancayo's 2. This demonstrated the home team's appetite for the opponent's goal throughout the match.

One area that Cienciano del Cusco needs to improve on is minimizing the offsides, as they were ruled offside 5 times while CD Sport Huancayo only deemed offside twice. This indicates that while Cienciano del Cusco was more aggressive, their attacks lacked coordination and timing.

However, it's important to remember that in football, it's the goals, not stats, that decide the match. In this regard, Cienciano del Cusco were the indisputable winners. Despite committing more offenses and being frequently ruled offside, they managed to keep their defense tight, not conceding any goals.

Finally, despite the number of yellow cards presented - four for CD Sport Huancayo and three for Cienciano del Cusco - no team was reduced to 10 men as none culminated in a red card. This shows that the game, while rough at times, never escalated to extreme unsporting behavior.

In conclusion, the home team, Cienciano del Cusco, leveraged their defensive discipline and early goal to win the match, even though their offensive moves often lacked cohesion. On the other side, CD Sport Huancayo will need to reflect on their defensive vulnerabilities to avoid conceding early in the game.
