However, Salvador Do Rosário responded for Athbrouth Rangers in the 29th minute, assisted by Ralf Frank, leveling the score and setting the tone for a second half dominated by the home team’s attacking intent. Despite Ralf Frank receiving a yellow card in the 47th minute, Athbrouth’s relentless pursuit of goals paid off with Carlos Camargo’s strike in the 67th minute, assisted by Šaćir Tadić. The visitors’ discipline waned further as Šaćir Tadić added a late goal in the 80th minute, assisted by Salvador Do Rosário, sealing the victory.

The xG figures—3.23 for Athbrouth Rangers and just 0.64 for St Cord City—highlight the disparity in quality and chances created. The hosts’ high shot count (14, with 12 on target) and superior conversion rate reflect their tactical dominance, while the visitors’ limited shots and a high number of saves (13) by the home goalkeeper reveal a game played largely on the visitors’ terms, but with limited threat. The tactical picture suggests Athbrouth Rangers capitalized on their opportunities, while St Cord City’s game plan was overly cautious, perhaps overly reliant on their early goal, and ultimately ineffective.
