New Mitnaby managed only five shots, four on target, with an xG of 1.13, reflecting their more limited threat in front of goal. The tactical battle was also reflected in the number of tackles—Dunstourshuth’s 11 tackles outstripped New Mitnaby’s six—highlighting their defensive resilience and aggressive pressing. The game was marred by a series of yellow cards, mostly for New Mitnaby, which perhaps disrupted their rhythm and contributed to their inability to maintain control. The visitors’ ability to convert their chances, combined with disciplined defending, ultimately sealed the result.

As the match progressed, Dunstourshuth’s attacking trio of Brunner and Kurita proved decisive. Brunner’s brace, rated 7.6/10, was a highlight, demonstrating his knack for finding space and finishing with composure. Kurita’s contribution of a goal and an assist, rated 7.3/10, underscored his influence in the final third. New Mitnaby’s sole goal from Peter Brown was a bright moment, but the team’s inability to capitalize on their chances and the accumulation of yellow cards hampered their efforts. The game’s final act was sealed by Kurita’s late goal, assisted by Šestan, which underscored the visitors’ dominance in the closing stages. Overall, Dunstourshuth deserved their victory, with tactical discipline and clinical finishing making the difference.
