AC Bellinzona's 3-1 victory over FC Schaffhausen in the Challenge League can be attributed to clinical finishing and effective game management. Schaffhausen managed to level the scores early in the second half, but Bellinzona's offense was persistent and regained the lead shortly after. With 5 corners and efficient utilization of set-pieces, Bellinzona maintained an attacking edge, unlike Schaffhausen, who only had 2 corners and struggled to capitalize on them.

A critical factor was Bellinzona's ability to exploit Schaffhausen's defensive lapses. Despite having more offsides (5 compared to Schaffhausen's 1), Bellinzona's attackers were able to realign swiftly and convert crucial chances. Schaffhausen, on the other hand, managed fewer opportunities, evidenced by their corner and offside statistics, indicating a lack of attacking flare and timing.

Both teams were disciplined defensively, with only slight variances in fouls committed (5 each) and yellow cards received, 2 for Schaffhausen and 1 for Bellinzona. However, Schaffhausen's second yellow card came right after Bellinzona's goal, potentially disrupting concentration and defensive stability. Bellinzona's more coordinated and composed team performance, avoiding further disciplinary issues, helped sustain their advantage and secure a decisive win.
