The scoreline grew most emphatically late, after Michael Brown briefly gave Burnfiell a goal to mark its work. Inko Arai answered four minutes later, then completed the hat-trick with strikes in the 89th and 90th minutes. Carston Park had already built a three-goal lead, but the closing sequence made a decisive win look still more emphatic; Burnfiell’s only goal did not open a route back into the contest.

For Carston Park, the key was not possession but what it did with the ball when it reached shooting positions. Its 12 shots on target put sustained pressure on the hosts, and Inko Arai made the most of the late openings. Burnfiell showed some persistence, keeping the ball and finding a goal despite the early dismissal, but one shot on target could not balance the visitors’ volume. A 1-6 result is a clear verdict, and the final minutes ensured there was no ambiguity in the punctuation.
