In what was a tightly contested encounter between Aluminium Arak FC and Esteghlal FC, the statistics reveal a match in which both sides gave it their all, but the more clinical finishing from Esteghlal FC ended up the deciding factor.

The home side, Aluminium Arak FC, despite showing passionate gameplay, was unable to convert their chances into goals. They had 5 shots on target from which 5 saves were made by the Esteghlal FC goalkeeper. Their 2 shots off target indicate that their shooting accuracy was an area of concern.

Esteghlal FC was on the stronger foot in terms of offensive pressure, outperforming Arak FC with 7 shots on target and 6 corner kicks, marking a lively presence in the opponent's half. Their lone goal was the result of their ability to press high and maintain pressure throughout the match. The higher number of shots on target paired with fewer shots off target compared to the home side, underline their superior finishing ability.

It is also notable that the number of fouls in the match was rather high, with Arak FC committing 10 fouls compared to Esteghlal FC's 8. However, the lack of any cards shows a controlled aggressive game, where the players were putting in the commitment but managed to stay within the binds of fair play.

Both teams made 3 substitutions indicating an evenly matched game where each side was constantly looking for tactical changes to gain an advantage. The near-equal offsides, 2 for Arak FC and 1 for Esteghlal FC, further show that both teams were battling it out with similar levels of attacking play and forward pushes.

While Arak FC might feel they were unfortunate not to convert their opportunities, it is clear that Esteghlal FC's more efficient play upfront and more targeted shooting paid dividends, resulting in the 1-0 victory. It's a clear illustration that effective attacking and precision in front of goal makes the difference in tightly contested matches like these.
