The tactical battle was evident, with Easilth Rovers controlling possession and creating numerous high-quality chances, but Hord Green’s disciplined defending and timely finishing kept the score level.

No Hord Green players reached the 7.0 rating threshold, but Soumaila N'guessan was influential in attack, and Wesley Jackson’s assist for the final goal was decisive.
