Proof if proof were needed that the only stat that truly matters in football is the final scoreline: here’s the post-match telemetry from Zulia’s outstanding 1-0 win over Nacional Potosi in the Copa Sudamericana on Wednesday evening.

The possession percentage is one thing, but Pies would like to know quite how Nacional’s forwards were allowed rattle away 30 shots off target in the space of 90 minutes and yet still retain their jobs as professional footballers.

Is their pitch on the side of a mountain or something?
