The opening exchanges were lively but cautious, with Israel Morales earning an early yellow for Soudled at 4'. The hosts wasted little time asserting themselves, with Friedrich Unger opening the scoring at 8' after a neat assist from Lindomar Da Silva. Almost immediately, Ousmane Sylla doubled the advantage at 9' thanks to a well-placed finish set up by Pedro Guzman. The visitors responded with a yellow card to Phillip Lewis at 44', but their efforts to claw back into the game were hampered by Soudled’s disciplined approach and solid defensive work, especially in goal where Soudled’s 14 saves kept their lead intact. The hosts’ control was evident in their possession, which hovered around 54%, and their ability to create chances, as reflected in their 7 shots on target.

The second half saw Soudled continue their dominance, with Norbert Fischer adding a third at 56' after a clever assist from Ousmane Sylla. The home side’s pressing and passing accuracy—an impressive 82%—kept Lynes Albion at bay, and Luis Pinto sealed the win at 68' with a well-taken goal assisted by Norbert Fischer. Meanwhile, Lynes Albion’s efforts were marked by their 9 shots on target and a possession percentage of 46%, but their inability to convert chances and the absence of standout performers meant they couldn’t threaten the hosts’ lead. The visitors’ late effort was rewarded when Pedro Chagas scored in stoppage time at 90' after a precise pass from Seungwoo Jeong, but it was too little, too late.

The match’s xG figures—2.1 for Soudled and 2.37 for Lynes Albion—highlighted the closeness of the underlying chances, with Lynes Albion slightly overperforming their expected goals, yet failing to capitalize on their opportunities. Conversely, Soudled’s efficiency in front of goal proved decisive, turning their chances into goals with clinical precision. Tactically, the hosts’ ability to maintain high pass accuracy and press effectively allowed them to control the game’s tempo, while Lynes Albion’s defensive lapses and disciplinary issues hampered their efforts to mount a comeback.
