The hosts, meanwhile, relied heavily on their goalkeeper, who made 14 saves, reflecting the relentless pressure from the visitors. Tactically, the Rovers’ ability to maintain high pass accuracy (83%) and dribble effectively (12 successful dribbles) kept Chamfor on the back foot, while their defensive resilience was demonstrated by their seven tackles and minimal need for saves.

His influence was felt throughout, orchestrating attacks and finishing with clinical precision. No Chamfor player managed to reach a 7.0 rating, reflecting the home side’s struggles to impose themselves offensively or defensively. The yellow cards for both teams, including one for Zdravko Ivanišević, added a touch of discipline concern but did little to alter the flow of the game.
