The game’s key moments started early, with Con-Dea’s Michel Lemoine receiving a yellow card in the second minute, perhaps a sign of the visitors’ early nerves. Just five minutes later, Jorge Alvez opened the scoring for Top Albion, assisted by Seungwoo Jeong, who was lively throughout. The hosts doubled their lead just before halftime when Nilson Pires scored from a pass by Philippe Robert, following a foul committed by Nilson Pires himself on the visitors’ side. The second half saw the home team extend their advantage with another goal from Nilson Pires, this time assisted by Pedro Chagas, sealing the game’s outcome. The visitors tried to respond but lacked the cutting edge, with their best efforts thwarted by the home goalkeeper’s 14 saves. The game’s physicality was evident, with Con-Dea committing more fouls and receiving two yellow cards, but Top Albion’s disciplined approach kept them on track.

Tactically, Top Albion’s approach was pragmatic, leveraging possession (54%) and a high pass accuracy (86%) to control the game’s tempo. Their expected goals (xG) of 2.74 suggest they created more than enough chances to justify the scoreline, and their finishing was efficient. Con-Dea’s xG of 2.31 indicates they had opportunities, but their inability to convert or capitalize on key moments was telling. The hosts’ ability to convert their chances—especially through Pires—highlighted their clinical edge, while Con-Dea’s efforts remained frustratingly speculative rather than decisive. The game was a reminder that possession and chances alone do not guarantee goals, but in this case, Top Albion’s precision made the difference.

Con-Dea’s standout players failed to reach the 7.0 threshold, with their efforts largely overshadowed by the hosts’ efficiency.
