SL Benfica’s 2-1 victory over Santa Clara on 14 September 2024 in the Primeira Liga was a match characterized by strategic efficiency and cohesive teamwork. Despite conceding an early goal within 28 seconds, Benfica demonstrated remarkable resilience. Their ability to equalize and then seize the lead before halftime was a clear testament to their effective on-field dynamics. Notably, the decisive moments came relatively close together, with Benfica’s goals scored at the 27-minute mark and the 33-minute mark, indicating their aggressive response and tenacity.

A critical statistical observation is the disparity in corner kicks, where Benfica earned three while Santa Clara had none. This statistic reflects Benfica's persistent attacking pressure, which continuously troubled Santa Clara’s defense. Additionally, the solitary offside against Benfica compared to Santa Clara’s clean sheet from offsides underscores Benfica’s disciplined positional play and tactical planning in their forward movements.

Discipline in defense and midfield also played a pivotal role. Benfica committed six fouls versus Santa Clara’s single foul, suggesting an assertive defensive approach designed to disrupt Santa Clara's play. Despite this, Benfica avoided any bookings, unlike Santa Clara, who received one yellow card in the 30th minute. This caution likely hampered Santa Clara's defensive aggression, contributing to Benfica's ability to dominate the play.

In summary, the statistical factors that most significantly impacted the match were Benfica's effective attack strategy, disciplined positioning, and strategic fouls, which, paired with Santa Clara’s constrained defensive response, paved the way for Benfica's victory.
