That's a 36% accuracy rate compared to Yate Town FC's 66% accuracy – a potentially decisive factor that could have influenced the match's outcome.

Lastly, offsides count was marginally higher for Gosport Borough FC (3) compared to Yate Town FC (2), underlining perhaps a slight impatience in the home side's attacking approach.

Overall, Yate Town FC demonstrated a higher degree of effectiveness in the critical moments, scoring off fewer shots and showing a better conversion rate. Despite Gosport Borough FC's higher ball possession that produced more shots and corner kicks, their inability to translate these into goals was what cost them the match.
