In a closely contested Premier Division match, Bohemians FC Dublin came from behind to secure a crucial 2-1 away victory against Shelbourne FC. This match demonstrated a significant comparison between both teams' qualities, game management, and match plan execution.

Looking at the data, two key data points stood out; Shots on target and Goalkeeper saves. Both of these statistics clearly defined the outcome of the match. The aggressiveness of Bohemians FC Dublin was evident with 7 shots on target as compared to Shelbourne FC's 2 shots on target. The shots on target efficiency of Bohemians was further accentuated by the fact that they only had 3 shots off target as compared to Shelbourne FC's 4.

Similarly, the fact that the Bohemians' goalkeeper had to make only 1 save compared to Shelbourne's 5 indicates both the defensive prowess of Bohemians and their ability to limit Shelbourne's scoring opportunities. Shelbourne FC's goalkeeper's effort to save 5 out of 7 shots on target was commendable but unfortunately was not enough to secure a win.

Beyond this, the match statistics also reveal a difference in team strategy with Shelbourne FC earning more corner-kicks (5) yet could not convert these into scoring opportunities.

The number of fouls committed by both sides almost matched with Shelbourne leading by a slight margin of 12 to 10. Behaviours on the pitch resulted in a comparatively cleaner game, with no player earning a yellow or red card from both sides.

The number of offsides for the visiting team was slightly higher, but this reflects the kind of attacking game that Bohemians were playing. Corner kick stats were nearly identical, but again it was Bohemians who utilized their opportunities better.

In conclusion, Bohemians' superior ability to convert their goal-scoring opportunities and their defensive solidity were key drivers of their victorious performance against Shelbourne FC. For future matches, it's evident that teams must both limit the scoring chances of Bohemians and break through their defence to secure a victory. Shelbourne FC, in particular, needs to work on these areas and aim to capitalise on their opportunities if they want to improve their chances for the upcoming matches.
