In the enthralled National League North match between Darlington FC and Rushall Olympic held on 25th November 2023, the teams ended in deadlock with one goal apiece. The game showcased aggressive plays, considering the number of shots directed at the goal and the number of fouls from both sides.

Analysing this game statistically, Darlington FC seems to have had more control over the game as they managed to notch up 12 shots, with 5 on target, compared to Rushall's 10 shots with 4 on target. However, the superior shot accuracy was made evident by Rushall's high conversion rate, scoring 1 from its 4 on-target attempts, while Darlington had to settle for one goal from its five on-target attempts.

While both teams had some clasping moments on either side of the field, Darlington's 3 corner kicks did not translate into a goal. Rushall made good use of its two corner kicks and kept the pressure on Darlington. It also appears that both teams preferred aggressive play as reflected by the number of fouls, with Darlington committing 13 infractions as opposed to Rushall's 8.

Despite these infractions, the game remained fair since there were no yellow or red cards shown to either team. Darlington employed two substitutes throughout the session while Rushall used one, suggesting a slightly diverse approach in tactics and game execution where Darlington possibly tried to diversify its approach.

A comparison of the goalkeeper performances exposes a narrow quality gap. The Rushall goalkeeper stopped four attempts while, Darlington’s goalkeeper recorded three saves from the four on-target shots, suggesting that the goalkeepers were another crucial factor in the tie.

In conclusion, neither the home-field advantage for Darlington, nor the slight edge in possession seemed to decisively influence the outcome of the game. It was the execution and conversion of shots from both teams that largely defined the scoring. While Darlington secured more opportunities, it was Rushall’s conversion rate that stood out, indicating the importance of clinical finishing in football.
