The match between Hastings United FC and Carshalton Athletic FC on the 14th of November concluded with a close 3-2 victory for the home team. Hastings United demonstrated remarkable performance both defensively and offensively, edging out a determined Carshalton Athletic side.

Statistically, one of the major contributing factors on the match outcome can be attributed to the efficiency in front of goal by Hastings. They not only had a higher number of shots on target – 7 compared to Carshalton’s 5, but also converted with a strike rate that is significantly higher with 3 goals from these 7 attempts. In contrast, Carshalton managed to score just 2 goals from their 5 on-target shots.

Another key factor in this match was the quality of goalkeeping displayed by Hastings United's goalkeeper, which was evidenced by the 3 crucial saves made. These saves potentially steered the match in their favour, since the goal difference was only one.

Fouls and corner kicks also played a significant role in this match. Hastings United committed more fouls (12) compared to Carshalton (9), suggesting tactical aggression and interceptions to prevent Carshalton's potential attacks. Additionally, Hastings United took advantage of their number of corner kicks, which were higher than Carshalton’s (8 versus 6). This statistical superiority in corner kicks also illuminates Hastings United's control over the match.

Both teams made frequent substitutions, however, with Carshalton making one more substitution than Hastings – perhaps in an effort to turn the tide and salvage the match. Nonetheless, this strategy appeared to have minor impact on the game’s final outcome.

In conclusion, a combination of precision in front of goal, key saves from the goalkeeper, and better utilisation of set-piece opportunities led to Hastings’ United narrow victory over Carshalton Athletic FC – a keen reminder that every play counts in the game of football. Interestingly, despite the intensity of the match, both teams demonstrated great discipline, as there were no yellow or red cards issued. This shows the professionalism and sportsmanship of both squads by respecting the rules of the sport.
