No players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher for Medcoe Rovers or Somble Albion.

For Medcoe Rovers, the central frustration is plain enough: 52% possession, 14 shots and an xG of 2.77 produced only the goal from Helder Fernandes. Those totals describe a side that got into promising attacking positions, but the final return left considerable room between opportunity and outcome. Somble Albion, by contrast, had less of the ball and fewer attempts, yet put eight of nine shots on target and scored three times. Its 14 dribbles, against seven for the hosts, also mark a greater willingness to take on opponents; with the score already moving in its favour, that directness helped make the difference. The 3-1 result is not a verdict that Medcoe Rovers failed to create, but it is a clear reward for Somble Albion’s more productive finishing.
