The match between Napsa Stars FC and Atletico Lusaka FC ended in a goalless draw, yet it was far from uneventful. A notable aspect was the discipline issues both teams faced, with each side accruing four yellow cards. Atletico Lusaka faced particularly severe consequences for their rough play, ending the match with two players sent off. This undoubtedly influenced their ability to maintain pressure and potentially alter the dynamic of the game in favour of Napsa Stars.

Napsa Stars FC managed more corner kicks, securing four against Atletico Lusaka’s two. This statistic highlights their marginally better ability to push forward and pose threats during set pieces, yet a lack of clinical finishing prevented these opportunities from materialising into goals. Surprisingly, despite the advantage in corner kicks, Napsa Stars did not exploit the numerical superiority offered by Atletico Lusaka’s red cards effectively, which could have changed the result.

In terms of team play, both sides seemed well-matched in defensive capability, as neither allowed a goal to slip through. Nonetheless, Atletico Lusaka's higher foul count of six indicates a perhaps overly aggressive approach that proved detrimental as it resulted in significant disciplinary action costing them manpower on the pitch. While Napsa Stars maintained a cleaner play in terms of fouls, their equivalent yellow card tally suggests moments of panicked, individual errors possibly stemming from pressure rather than a coordinated strategic breakdown.
