In terms of expected goals, Piched County’s 3.44 vastly outstripped Ram Aylan’s 0.46, reflecting both the quality and quantity of chances created. Orlando Da Cruz’s brace and Patrick Bernard’s late flourish were well within the bounds of their xG contributions, but the disparity in actual goals scored suggests Ram Aylan’s goalkeeper was under siege, and their defenders perhaps more inclined to foul than to defend. The tactical narrative was clear: Piched County’s forward line was efficient, while Ram Aylan’s backline struggled to contain the visitors’ fluid movement and incisive passing, especially in the final third.

Despite the scoreline, Ram Aylan’s possession (57%) and pass accuracy (83%) indicate they attempted to control the game, yet their efforts were largely neutralized by Piched County’s disciplined pressing and sharp counterattacks. The visitors’ 16 shots, with 12 on target, demonstrate their attacking intent, while Ram Aylan’s three attempts, only one on target, highlight their struggles in creating meaningful scoring opportunities. The game’s disciplinary record, with three yellow cards for Ram Aylan and one for Piched County, added a layer of tension, but ultimately, the visitors’ clinical finishing was the decisive factor.

Ram Aylan: No standout performers (rating 7.0+) recorded. Piched County:

• Orlando Da Cruz (8.1) - Led the line with two goals and an assist, his movement and finishing were the difference.
• Patrick Bernard (7.6) - Added two goals, including the final strike, and was a constant threat.
• Eliseu Dias (7.4) - Scored with a well-placed shot, showcasing his composure in the box.
