Looking at the statistics for the National League North match between Scunthorpe United and Chorley FC, it is evident that Scunthorpe United had more control over the game. They maintained consistent offensive momentum, clearly coherent from their 3-0 triumph.

The home team's superiority can be seen in the shots on target (6 compared to Chorley's 1). The scoring ratio of Scunthorpe was 50% (3 goals out of 6 shots on target), demonstrating efficiency in the attack. Interestingly, Scunthorpe had a total of only 8 shots, which points to a clear focus on quality over quantity. Alongside that, Scunthorpe United goalkeeper was slightly less busy, needing to make only one save.

Another interesting point to note is the high number of fouls committed by Scunthorpe United (14). However, the absense of any yellow cards suggests that these fouls perhaps didn't make a considerable impact on the game's evolution and weren't necessarily indicative of unsporting behaviour.

In addition, Scunthorpe's two assists strongly suggest successful team coordination in delivering a strong offensive performance. It was a team that dominated not only the score but also the play.

The corner kicks scenario might shed light on the contrasting defensive approaches. Scunthorpe made 4 corner kicks, possibly pushing the opposing defence to its limits, while Chorley only managed 2 corner kicks which didn't convert into goals.

Chorley Football Club, unfortunately, had lesser opportunities and couldn't capitalise on the ones they had. Their three shots, one of which was on target, resulted in no goals showing a lack of converting efficiency in this game.

Overall, although both the teams made an equal number of substitutions, it seems that Scunthorpe United optimised their team line-up better. From the statistics provided, Scunthorpe United proved superior in terms of co-ordination, control and finishing, which had an enormous impact on the outcome of the game. Despite similar number of fouls (14 to 8), the home side played a cleaner game as there were no yellow or red cards for either side. This game stands as a reminder that converting opportunities and maintaining control over the gameplay are crucial factors for a victorious outcome.
