The game’s early phases saw Redhamborle take control, with Eduardo Monteiro opening the scoring in the 16th minute. Just three minutes later, John Smit doubled the lead with an assist from Vladimir štimac, illustrating the hosts’ attacking intent. Helson Town’s only notable moment came in the 89th minute when Sukwon Goo scored a consolation goal, assisted by Eric Moreau. Throughout the match, Helson Town struggled to threaten the goal, managing only five shots and three on target, while Redhamborle peppered the opposition with twenty shots, sixteen on target, and an xG that reflected their attacking efficiency. The hosts’ passing was precise, with an 86% accuracy, and their ability to create chances was evident in their five corners. Helson Town’s defensive efforts were hampered by a high number of saves (19), and their tackling was more frequent but less effective, with nine tackles compared to four by the hosts.
While Redhamborle’s attacking players shone brightly, with Eduardo Monteiro earning a 7.6 rating for his two-goal display, Helson Town lacked a standout performer, with no player reaching a 7.0 rating. The hosts’ tactical discipline and superior finishing ultimately decided the game, while Helson Town’s effort was marred by a lack of attacking potency and a defensive line that was often outnumbered. The match was a reminder that in football, as in life, numbers can be deceiving, but the scoreboard rarely lies.
Helson Town’s best was Sukwon Goo (6.9), who managed to score a late consolation but was otherwise limited in influence. No other Helson players reached the 7.0 threshold, reflecting the visitors’ struggles to impose themselves on the game.
