The National League North match on 11th November 2023, ended in a 1-0 win for the home team, Curzon Ashton FC, over Bishops Stortford FC. The primary statistical factor informing this outcome was the remarkable difference in attack, notably in shots made and their accuracy.

Curzon Ashton FC demonstrated an aggressive offensive strategy, with the team making a total of 15 shots. Bishops Stortford FC struggled in contrast, attempting only 5 shots. Similarly, the difference in the shots on target was remarkable. The home team kept the pressure on the opposition goalkeeper with 8 shots hitting the target, while the visitors only managed to get 2 shots on Bishops Stortford's goal.

Success in front of goal is often a game of numbers, and this match was no exception. Despite the fact that only one of Curzon Ashton's shots found the net, their persistent attack continually threatened Bishops Stortford FC's defence. A contrast in the shots off target, which ratio was 7:3 in favour of the home team, suggests that Curzon Ashton was much more enterprising and daring in their attack.

The contribution from the Curzon Ashton FC goalkeeper should also be noted. The home team's keeper made two critical saves, which, combined with Bishops Stortford FC's lacklustre shooting, kept the away team's scoreboard blank. On the flip side, despite the away team's goalkeeper making an impressive seven saves, the heightened assault from the home team eventually broke through their defence.

In the field of discipline, both sides had their shortcomings, with Curzon Ashton FC committing 13 fouls and Bishops Stortford FC committing 14, although no yellow or red cards were shown throughout the game. It is noteworthy that while both teams were nearly equal in terms of fouls committed, Curzon Ashton FC was more cunning in their game plan, as evidenced by two offsides compared to one committed by Bishops Stortford FC.

The number of substitutions made by both sides gives an insight into their tactical approach. With three substitutions, it appears that Bishops Stortford FC were trying to instil vigour into their side, while the home team's two substitutions suggest a more steady approach.

In conclusion, it was Curzon Ashton FC's attacking prowess and goalkeeping acumen, combined with Bishops Stortford FC's underwhelming offensive performance, that essentially influenced the result of the match. The decisive factor was arguably Curzon Ashton's higher number and accuracy of shots made, paving the way for their victory.
