Is it Good to Defeat a FIDE Rated 1975 Player being a 13 years old boy ?

Its very impressive, but if you ask questions in this manner people will think you're fishing for compliments. Those were very good moves and I'm sure you're only going to get better. But always remember that this is the internet and people can be misunderstand you and consequently be quite cruel.
Your opponent blundered in the opening. I don't think you can draw much meaning from it.

Yes, it is good. However, this is just a basic lack of opening theory and blunders. You cannot really take out anything from this game. I am struggling to believe this is a 1975 player.
From the first post:

Confusing 'crushing someone in the middle game' and 'winning after a blunder in the opening' is a pretty bad sign, though.

It's nice that you swiftly punished an illogical setup and backwards maneuver in the opening. Also if black is 1900 fide that's like, what, 2000+ on lichess? Crazy that they played so poorly, did they seem to be self sabotaging or digging themselves deeper into a hole they've dug themselves into? Did you get that vibe from them? Because this opening is not a good sign especially not from an apparently capable player. It seems more like a cry for help or yeah as I said, strangely, a form of self sabotage. Very very odd game, I wouldn't try to think too much on it, and try to get more legit wins in the future. Keep fighting, there will be a lot of losses, but make sure to take your opportunities to learn along the way and consult engine for analysis but with your own narrative and ideas underlying.
