Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Batlesh scored five from an xG of 3.49, outperforming the chance-quality estimate by 1.51 goals. That margin speaks both to Walsh’s exceptional finishing and to a home attack that kept putting efforts on target: 13 of 15 shots. Millinston scored once from 0.73 xG, a modest over-performance, but its four shots and two on target offered little volume to sustain a comeback. The possession figures were close, 52% to 48%, yet the shot count was not; Batlesh used the ball more directly to generate danger, while Millinston won more corners without translating them into comparable attacking output.

The early brace gave Batlesh a useful platform, and Yacouba Traore’s goal at 32' briefly brought Millinston back within reach. Walsh restored the two-goal cushion eight minutes into the second half, then scored again three minutes later, making the decisive stretch a particularly efficient piece of work. Bruno Henrique added the fifth at 73'. The three home yellow cards and two for Millinston added some administrative texture, but no red cards altered the balance. Batlesh finished with a four-goal margin, backed by a substantial advantage in shots and tackles rather than possession alone.
