In a thrilling FA Cup encounter on October 17, 2023, Woking FC showed their dominance with a convincing 2-0 win over Hemel Hempstead Town. The home team's superior finishing ability and efficient goalkeeping were instrumental in securing the win.

Woking FC's efficacy was evident early, scoring twice within the first half. The opener came at 00:31:27, followed by a second goal at 00:39:33, positioning the team at an early and firm 2-0 lead. Hemel Hempstead's defensive strategies fell short in negating Woking FC's attacking zeal, clearly reflected in the lack of accurate goal interventions and possibly the cause of the two yellow cards they accumulated all within the first half.

Conversely, Woking FC's defence remained solid and their offence lethal. They didn't give their opponents any real chance of scoring, as suggested by the team's 0 offsides, pointing towards a disciplined defensive structure. Furthermore, their endeavour to make chances count can be corroborated by the 4 corner kicks which certainly created great scoring opportunities.

Discipline-wise, Woking FC did obtain three yellow cards, with two coming in quick succession in the first half, however, the team managed to avoid anything serious in terms of red cards. Hemel Hempstead, in the contrast, saw even more discipline issues with the concession of four yellow cards. This suggests a possible frustration in the squad and a difficulty in handling Woking FC's strategic play.

Although Hemel Hempstead had more yellows and were caught offside thrice as compared to Woking's none, these statistical indicators do not provide a clear advantage or disadvantage in the final result considering no goals had been scored from these. The most impactful factors influencing the outcome were evidently Woking FC's concise shots on goal leading to two successful attempts in the first half.

The sharp contrast in goal scoring and toughness in defence suggests a superior overall performance by Woking FC - a pivotal factor in achieving victory in this FA Cup encounter.

Crucially, Woking FC's robust defence coupled with an effective and potent attack demonstrated a highly coordinated team performance essentially overshadowing Hemel Hempstead's efforts, despite their fight reflected through the number of yellows they picked up. This combination of efficient attacking and solid defending is what ultimately decided the match, as Woking FC were victorious without conceding a goal.
