In this decisive cup encounter, FC Koper's first-half offensive prowess sealed their victory against NK Bravo with a comfortable 3-0 lead, established within the first 40 minutes. The early goals at 14:57, 20:42, and 39:59 were crucial in setting the tone, demonstrating Koper's ability to capitalize on their attacking chances efficiently. The early pressure applied by Koper not only provided them with a strong advantage but evidently disoriented NK Bravo's defensive strategy, which struggled to cope with the swift onslaught.

Despite having more corner kicks with a total of five compared to Koper’s one, NK Bravo failed to convert their set-piece opportunities into goals. This lack of execution highlights a critical weakness in their attacking department, as they could not translate chances into tangible results. Koper, despite being less active in earning corners, were remarkably efficient in open play, striking a balance between strategic positioning and decisive finishing.

Both teams showcased aggressive play styles, evidenced by a total of five yellow cards — three to Koper and two to Bravo — along with a red card for Koper. The second half was particularly marred with fouls, suggesting a more physical, perhaps desperate, approach by Bravo to claw back into the game. However, these bookings hindered both teams’ fluidity and could have tipped the scale, should Koper not have had a substantial lead. NK Bravo's inability to exploit Koper's secondary-half caution post-red-card illustrates a missed tactical opportunity, while Koper's discipline to maintain their first-half advantage despite the numerical disadvantage highlights their cohesive teamwork and strategic resilience.
