For a match that changed hands twice, the final turn was remarkably clean in its arithmetic: Friack Athletic scored three times, Woods Villa twice, and the winning goal came four minutes after the dismissal. The hosts’ greater possession, shooting accuracy and dribbling volume (15 to seven) point to a side that kept finding routes forward rather than waiting for the game to settle. Woods Villa still produced two goals and five shots on target, enough to make the contest uncomfortable until Pires supplied its last and most useful answer. The victory was narrow, earned through pressure and persistence; the red card was a significant complication, not a substitute for the work that had already gone into getting there.
