In the hotly contested FA WSL clash between West Ham United Women and Bristol City LFC, the latter emerged victorious scoring three goals to West Ham's two. However, the statistics tell a story of edging the game on clinical efficiency more than absolute dominance.

It should be noted that West Ham United Women's attacking playstyle was evident as they significantly outperformed Bristol City in terms of shooting, amassing 6 shots on target and 7 shots off target, as compared to Bristol's 4 on-target and 2 off-target shots.

However, Bristol City was more efficient with their shooting, evident in their three goals from four shots on target. This points to the quality in Bristol City’s front-line, who made their opportunities count, resulting in a win.

Further credit must be given to the Bristol City goalkeeper, who made 4 saves compared to their counterpart's one. These goalkeeper saves were instrumental in keeping West Ham United Women's goal tally down and may well have been the crucial factor between a loss and a win.

Despite West Ham having 5 corner kicks to Bristol’s 3, they were not able to capitalize on these set-piece opportunities. This indicates how crucial conversion rates from corner kicks can be in determining the outcome of a match.

Finally, the discipline of the teams also contributed to the flow of the match. West Ham committed 8 fouls, possibly disrupting their rhythm and hampering their chances, while Bristol had only 2 fouls, allowing them a cleaner and smoother transition in both offensive and defensive plays.

In all, despite delivering an aggressive game with substantially more shots and corner kicks, West Ham United Women were let down by less clinical finishing and the lack of discipline. On the other hand, Bristol City LFC's efficiency in their attacks, combined with strong defense from their goalkeeper, underpinned their triumphant performance.
