No Clances players reached a rating of 7.0.

The final score was emphatic, but the match statistics show that control did not arrive through monopolising the ball: possession was 51%-49%, and Clances won more corners and completed more dribbles. The difference was what happened at either end of those efforts. Bolebrielbury put 12 of 16 shots on target and found the net six times; Clances produced two shots, both on target, but no goals. Four Clances yellow cards also marked a difficult afternoon, though the result was already taking shape before the late goals.

Bolebrielbury’s four-goal first half made the contest a steep climb for Clances, and the two goals after the break ensured there would be no late suspense to rescue. Lemoine was the central figure, while Chagas and Escobar added goals and assists to a performance that spread the scoring beyond the hat-trick. Six goals against 3.45 xG is an unusually generous return; the visitors’ 0.51 xG, meanwhile, tells a quieter story of limited chances. Bolebrielbury won decisively, with finishing doing the loudest work.
