Elche CF's dominant 4-0 victory over Real Oviedo can be largely attributed to their attacking efficiency and set-piece execution. Within the opening five minutes, Elche swiftly capitalized on an early opportunity, setting the tone for the match with a goal at 4:52. This early strike not only gave Elche momentum but also placed pressure on Real Oviedo, who struggled to form a coherent response throughout the match.

Real Oviedo's lack of attacking pressure is evidenced by their failure to register any corner kicks, in stark contrast to Elche's six. This disparity highlights Elche's superior ability to maintain and utilize offensive pressure, effectively pinning the opposition back into their defensive third. With two more goals coming in the second half at 53:14 and 82:26, Elche's consistent attacking waves disrupted Oviedo's defensive setup and allowed them to add to their tally comfortably.

While both teams committed a similar number of fouls (Elche 4, Oviedo 3), Real Oviedo's defense was visibly rattled, as evidenced by the three yellow cards they accumulated. In particular, the early yellow card at 3:46 placed Oviedo on the back foot, contributing to a hesitant and reactive approach. Elche's discipline in committing only four fouls while maintaining aggressive forward play demonstrated an effective balance that Oviedo could not match.

The impact of Elche's tactical discipline was further magnified by their goalkeeping and defensive setups that kept Real Oviedo's shots away from threatening positions. With no goals conceded, Elche's defensive organization ensured their goalkeeper's role remained largely unchallenged throughout the encounter. Elche’s cohesive teamwork, effective set pieces, and disciplined execution were the critical factors behind their resounding victory.
