Looking first at the goals scored, LDU Quito had a superior shot efficiency. They managed to get 8 of their shots on target, with a success rate of 37.5%, giving them 3 goals.

In terms of assists, it was clear that LDU Quito demonstrated more cohesive teamwork. All three goals came with assists, indicating more efficient cooperation between teammates. Conversely, Cumbaya FC had only one assist, suggesting they struggled to create opportunities and relied more on individual plays.

On the defensive side, LDU Quito's goalkeeper made critical contributions to their success, making five essential saves against on-target shots from Cumbaya FC. This certainly contributed to keeping the home team’s score low. In contrast, the home team's goalkeeper, could only manage three saves demonstrating a defensively weaker performance.

Another important factor to take account is the number of fouls. LDU Quito were penalised more heavily with a total of 12 fouls, while Cumbaya FC committed just 8. However, it didn't seem to affect the outcome of the game as none resulted in penalty kicks. The influence of fouls becomes relatively insignificant as there were no red or yellow cards being shown.

In terms of game tactics, both teams used their substitution quota fully. However, neither team seemed to gain a significant advantage from fresh legs, as the ratio of substitutions to goals scored remained the same for both teams.

Finally, looking at offsides and corner kicks, LDU Quito showed better control and strategy with fewer offsides and more corner kicks, hinting at their higher pressure and more aggressive attack approach.

In conclusion, the decisive factors contributing to LDU Quito's victory were their superior shot accuracy, higher teamwork as represented by assists, and better goalkeeping performance. This shows, offense and a good defense strategy were vital to the team's win.
