The game’s key moments unfolded early and often in Sousea’s favor. At just 2 minutes, Enrico Coppola received a yellow card for the hosts, setting an early tone of frustration. By the 6th minute, Ramon Diaz opened the scoring with a precise finish, assisted by Yakhya Diedhiou, giving Sousea an immediate advantage. The visitors continued to press, and by the 32nd minute, Heinz Baumann doubled the lead with a well-placed shot, thanks to Cameron Evans. The first half concluded with Sousea in control, and the pattern persisted after the break. Yifeng Lim added a third at 47 minutes, again assisted by Evans, before Ifeanyi Michael sealed the game with a goal at 65 minutes, assisted by Diaz. Meanwhile, disciplinary issues arose with a yellow card for Joao Martins at 60 minutes and another for Eusebio Barajas at 78 minutes, but neither side saw red.
Tactically, Sousea’s ability to convert chances was evident, with their xG of 2.69 translating into four goals, slightly overperforming their expected output. Their passing accuracy of 85% and possession of 52% allowed them to control the game’s tempo, while their ability to create multiple opportunities through Cameron Evans’s two assists proved decisive. Braven United’s 48% possession and 16 shots, including 12 on target, suggest a team that was busy but ultimately unable to break down Sousea’s disciplined defense or capitalize on their own chances. The hosts’ 13 saves indicate a busy goalkeeper, yet the defensive lapses were costly.
No players from Braven United managed to reach the 7.0+ rating, but Enrico Coppola’s early yellow and Eusebio Barajas’ late card hint at a side that struggled to maintain discipline amid mounting pressure.

In the end, Sousea’s clinical edge and disciplined approach proved too much for Braven United, who will need to tighten their defense and sharpen their finishing if they are to turn their promising xG into points.
