The game was largely played in Skippington’s half, with Crandon Park controlling possession at 53% and executing 83% pass accuracy.

In the end, Crandon Park’s relentless pressure and sharp finishing proved decisive. Robert Moreau was the standout performer, netting twice and earning a 7.3 rating, demonstrating his importance in the attack. Skippington’s efforts were hampered by a lack of attacking potency, with no player reaching a 7.0 rating. The game’s flow was punctuated by a yellow card for each side early on, but no dismissals marred the contest.
