This coverage reports the U23 Liga Revelacao match between Leixoes SC U23 and Academico de Viseu FC U23 that took place on 22 November 2023.

Scoring an impressive 2-0 victory, Leixoes SC U23 demonstrated a superior offensive performance compared to their opponent. The home team's first goal, occurring at the 31st minute of the first half, provided a psychological advantage and momentum that paved the way for the second goal coming at the 62nd minute of the second half. However, one can not overlook the increased aggression from Leixoes SC U23 side, reflected in the high tally of 7 yellow cards, significantly higher than the 2 cards earned by Academico de Viseu FC U23.

Despite having more corner kicks (5) than Leixoes SC (4), Academico de Viseu FC failed to capitalize on these opportunities, resulting in a scoreless outing. This emphasizes Leixoes SC U23's effective defensive strategy throughout the match. An aspect of this can be seen in the number of offsides, with Academico de Viseu FC caught offside only once compared to Leixoes SC’s quadruple count (4), implying a careful and disciplined defensive line from the latter.

The significant number of fouls (18) incurred by Leixoes SC indicates an aggressive, disruption-based defensive strategy. This approach, though contributing to a successful shutout of the opposition, was not without costs as it resulted in a red card in addition to the seven yellow cards.

On the other hand, Academico de Viseu FC, despite committing even more fouls (22), managed to control their aggression better with lesser cards inflicted. However, this did not translate into improved performance as they failed to score any goals.

As for the substantial number of yellow cards earned by Leixoes SC U23, while it might point toward a lack of discipline, it also possibly indicates a high level of commitment and tactical fouling employed to disrupt the rhythm of their opponents.

In summary, Leixoes SC's victory was largely down to their aggressive defence, coupled with an efficient conversion of scoring opportunities – despite the cost of incurring a comparatively high number of infringements and yellow cards. Meanwhile, the inability of Academico de Viseu FC to convert the higher number of corner kicks they received, coupled with a lack of discipline and ineffective aggression, contributed to their defeat.
