Cristiano Gomes and Julio Montero led the charge, scoring twice each and contributing an assist apiece, while Emanuel Coelho and Luis Garcia also found the net. The hosts’ defensive efforts were overwhelmed, with 15 saves required from their goalkeeper, a testament to the relentless pressure applied by Cothwes. The game’s tactical narrative was written in the visitors’ ability to convert chances, while Naigh City’s lone shot was more a token gesture than a threat.

The match’s final scoreline was a fair reflection of the flow and control of the game. Cothwes’s attacking prowess was on full display, with their players consistently finding space and executing with clinical precision. Naigh City’s effort was hampered by a lack of attacking potency and a defensive line that was repeatedly breached. The game also saw some disciplinary moments, with yellow cards for Luca Colombo and Hugo Cabrera, and a couple for Cristiano Gomes, but no red cards. Overall, it was a comprehensive demonstration of the visitors’ attacking quality and the hosts’ struggles to contain it, leaving little doubt about the deservedness of the scoreline.
