The match review of the EEST Primera A competition game that took place on 16 April 2024 featuring the home team Envigado FC and the travelers Deportes Tolima, presents some interesting insights.
Despite having a lower number of shots on target (5) compared to their counterparts (9), Deportes Tolima managed to put up a fight, scoring 1 goal against Envigado FC's 2. The away team's overall limited goal-scoring opportunities might be attributed to the home team's formidable defensive efforts that reduced them to just 5 shots on target and 3 off.
However, Deportes Tolima made the most of their few opportunities, successfully converting 20% of their shots on target into a goal. Conversely, Envigado FC demonstrated a more aggressive attacking front with a shot accuracy percentage of 60%, but their conversion rate fell short at roughly 22.2%.
Both teams showed commendable discipline, with neither team receiving a yellow or red card throughout the match. However, the number of fouls was quite high, with Envigado FC committing 11 fouls against Deportes Tolima's 9.
The home team made heavy use of their substitution bench with 3 changes, potentially indicating a strategic move to exploit fresh players against the tiring opposition or addressing injuries.
In terms of set-plays, contrary to the usual pattern, the away team had more corner kicks than the home team, 3 against 2. However, this advantage did not transform into actual goals. On the contrary, it was Envigado FC that turned its 2-corner opportunities into significant events, emphasizing their proficiency at capitalizing set-plays.
The offsides data-point reveals that both teams employed a high line of defense, leading to an offside trap on several occasions, which, coupled with their choice of substitutions, had a role in dictating the match's overall flow.
However, the most telling data is the 'saves' statistic. Deportes Tolima's goalkeeper had to make 8 saves against Envigado FC's 5, demonstrating the commendable number of offensive initiations made by the home team. However, this also highlights the visiting team's staunch goalkeeping performance, despite the eventual loss.
In summary, Envigado FC's superior attack combined with strategic substitutions and an optimized offside trap proved more effective to secure a win over Deportes Tolima. Nevertheless, the latter team showed defensive resilience, despite their limited goal-scoring chances.
