The match between Rajasthan United FC and Gokulam Kerala on the 16th February 2024, played as part of the I-League, saw Gokulam Kerala assert their dominance with a convincing 4-1 victory.

While Rajasthan United FC had a significant number of shots on target (7), they were not as efficient in converting these opportunities, scoring only once. The same wasn’t an issue for Gokulam Kerala, as they managed to convert nearly half of their 11 on-target chances to take a significant lead. This shows that either Gokulam Kerala’s forwards were more clinical, or Rajasthan United's goalkeeper wasn't as effective in denying the shots.

Rajasthan United’s goalkeeper did manage to pull off 7 saves, but the higher number can also be attributed to the greater number of on-target shots by Gokulam Kerala. Gokulam Kerala's goalkeeper, while having fewer saves (6), allowed only one goal, showing better success in denying goals.

In terms of defensive statistics, both sides avoided any disciplinary cards. Rajasthan United FC, however, committed more fouls (10 vs 8), potentially breaking up Gokulam Kerala's momentum but ultimately proving unsuccessful in preventing their attacks.

Gokulam Kerala's control of the match is further highlighted by their dominance in corner kicks, securing 6 compared to Rajasthan United’s 3. Such a disparity suggests that Gokulam Kerala spent more time on the offensive, pushing Rajasthan United into a defensive stance.

The match also saw each side make 3 substitutions, reflecting equally active efforts to make tactical changes to influence the game's outcome. However, this seemed more successful for Gokulam Kerala, considering their secure win.

Offside infractions were relatively low for both teams, limited to 2 for Rajasthan United and 3 for Gokulam Kerala, showing disciplined positioning from both sides.

In conclusion, while Rajasthan United FC showed promise with a good number of on-target shots and goalkeeper saves, the lack of successful goal conversion and a weaker defensive strategy with more fouls and fewer corner kicks led to their downfall. On the other hand, Gokulam Kerala's effectiveness in turning shots on target into goals, paired with disciplined gameplay and dominant offensive maneuvers, were the decisive factors in their victory.
