Roystey Athletic’s dominance was evident from the outset, with German Castro leading the charge. His early brace—scoring in the 7th and 10th minutes—set the tone, with the second goal assisted by Gerhard Schwarz. Dungborporow responded swiftly, with Khadim Diakhate pulling one back in the 11th minute after Lindomar Da Silva’s assist, briefly threatening to spoil the hosts’ rhythm. However, the home side’s relentless pressure and sharp finishing, exemplified by Yasuo Kimura’s goal in the 64th minute and Tom Andersen’s strike three minutes later, sealed the game. Harold Henderson’s late goal, assisted by Jonatas Amaral, capped a comprehensive performance. Notably, Duncan Butler received a yellow card in the 54th minute, while Gerhard Schwarz was also booked in the 88th, adding a touch of discipline to the proceedings.
The xG figures tell the story of a game that was far more one-sided than the scoreline suggests. Roystey Athletic’s 4.09 xG indicates they created numerous high-quality chances, converting a significant portion of their opportunities. Conversely, Dungborporow’s 0.36 xG underscores their limited attacking threat, with only a single shot on target. The hosts’ ability to generate dangerous situations, combined with their efficient finishing, was the decisive factor. Defensively, the visitors struggled to contain the home side’s movement, and their goalkeeper’s 17 saves highlight the relentless pressure they faced.
No Dungborporow player reached the 7.0+ rating, reflecting their struggles in both attack and defence.
