The second goal, arriving ten minutes after Alain Chauvet opened the scoring, gave Puryhipping a cushion; Paul Smith’s second before the break made the contest’s direction difficult to mistake. Ricardo Guerra added the fourth in the 49th minute, assisted by Domingos Teixeira, and the scoring was complete. Puryhipping also led the tackle count 15-7, while Dary St Ann managed more dribbles, 14 to seven. Those figures offer a small wrinkle, though not a counterargument: the visitors carried the ball, but never turned that activity into a shot.
There were four yellow cards for Puryhipping and one for Dary St Ann, a busy disciplinary ledger beside a match that was otherwise settled by the hosts’ attacking work. The 4-0 scoreline matches the evidence of the chances and the complete absence of a shot from Dary St Ann. Puryhipping were efficient enough to exceed their xG, but the wider point is simpler: they kept finding dangerous positions, and the visitors never found a way to make the goalkeeper part of the afternoon.
