No Burport Rovers players reached a 7.0 rating.
The numbers describe a match in which Burport Rovers had the ball more often, passed it more accurately and won twice as many corners, yet Staford County finished with a six-goal advantage. That is the distinction between having possession and making it count: the visitors’ cleaner passing and greater dribbling total could not compensate for the hosts’ much higher volume of shots on target. Staford County also made 13 tackles to the visitors’ one, a sharp contrast in defensive involvement that suggests the hosts were more active when the ball was not theirs. By full time, the result was emphatic and the route to it was plain: Staford County created and converted; Burport Rovers had opportunities, but none found the net.
