Chilland’s control of the game was reflected in their possession and shot statistics, with the home side maintaining a balanced 50% possession but creating far more scoring opportunities. Their expected goals (xG) of 4.24 significantly outstripped Sancestow’s 0.26, indicating a game where the hosts' finishing and chance creation far exceeded what the data suggests the visitors could realistically expect to convert. The visitors’ dribbling attempts (15) contrasted sharply with their minimal shot count, emphasizing their inability to penetrate the home defense. The tactical narrative was clear: Chilland pressed high and capitalized on their chances, while Sancestow’s efforts remained largely speculative.

The match was punctuated by a series of disciplinary actions, with three yellow cards for Chilland and one for Sancestow, but no red cards. The home side’s goal scorers—Jose Martinez with three goals, Mohamed Essam, and Alfredo Valenzuela—demonstrated clinical finishing, with Martinez’s hat-trick highlighting his pivotal role. Shane Reid’s two assists underscored his creative influence, while the defensive discipline and tactical organization kept Sancestow at bay. Despite the visitors’ efforts to rally, they could not muster a meaningful response, and the result was a testament to Chilland’s attacking efficiency and defensive solidity.
