On 01 January 2023, in a League One competition match, Port Vale emerged victorious, posting 3 goals against Forest Green Rovers who managed to garner only one goal. Even though the match saw zero red or yellow cards for either side, it was quite a heated contest packed with fouls and great defensive play led by the goalkeepers from both teams.

Analysing the teams' performance, one of the main aspects that put Port Vale ahead was their more efficient attack force, resulting in more shots on target. Port Vale had 9 shots on target while Forest Green Rovers had only 6. This played a significant role in pushing the goal score in favor of Port Vale. The team's accurate shooting, supported by 2 assists, successfully translated to a higher goal tally.

While Forest Green Rovers' attacking prowess fell short, its goalkeeper's save count was notable, accounting for 6 saves, one more than Port Vale's. However, their shooting accuracy let them down with 5 shots off-target compared to Port Vale’s 3.

Despite losing, Forest Green Rovers took more corner kicks (4), a sign of their territorial advantage, while Port Vale had 3. Yet, they failed to convert these into more scoring opportunities. Forest Green Rovers also committed more fouls (8) compared to Port Vale's 6, indicative of their struggle to control the game.

The match featured frequent strategy shifts, evident by the number of substitutions, with Forest Green Rovers making 3 and Port Vale making 2. Despite those changes, Forest Green Rovers' performance wasn't enough to overcome the match deficit.

In conclusion, with superior shooting accuracy and effective utilization of assists, Port Vale managed to outmaneuver Forest Green Rovers. Though Forest Green Rovers showed promise with their corner kicks and goalkeeper saves, their lack of shooting accuracy and high foul count cost them the match.
