In this FA Cup matchup, Boston United FC narrowly emerged victorious over Rushall Olympic, securing a 1-0 win despite creating fewer opportunities on goal.

The defining factor in the match outcome was clearly the respective goalkeeping performances. The Rushall Olympic goalkeeper could only manage a single save, faltering to Boston United FC's singular shot on goal in the first half. In stark contrast, Boston's keeper was put to the test more rigorously, facing 4 shots on target from Rushall Olympic and successfully repelling all of them. This can be seen as pivotal to Boston's victory.

Moving onto the offensive play, Rushall Olympic had the upper hand, producing 7 shots, with 4 of them being on target. However, their striker's failure to convert these decent opportunities figured prominently in their defeat. Boston United FC only had 2 shots on target, yet managed to score from one of these attempts taken in the first half which turned out to be vital.

On disciplinary front, the game remained fair and clean as neither side received a yellow or red card during the match. As for fouls committed, Rushall Olympic outnumbered Boston United FC 8 to 5, but neither side committed any misdemeanours that significantly altered the outcome of the match.

Looking at the corners and offsides, the two teams were evenly matched, with Rushall Olympic making 5 corner kicks to Boston's 4, and Boston judged offside 3 times to Rushall's 2. However, neither team was able to capitalise on these situations.

In terms of substitutions, Boston United FC utilised all three changes allowed, one more than Rushall Olympic. This may suggest a tactical advantage that resonated in the final scoreline with the away team clinifying the victory.

Summarising, the critical influence in the match's outcome was the higher efficiency of Boston United FC's defensive performance combined with the effective utilisation of their opportunities in attack, which translated into the winning goal in the end. It's evident that, despite Rushall Olympic having more attempts on goal, the quality of chances created and clinical finishing was found wanting, allowing Boston United FC to take their opportunities and secure a hard fought victory.
