The report
The opening 13 minutes brought goals from Ruben Amaya, Ismael Ortega and Samuel Burns, with Konate Bakayoko assisting the latter two. Paul White made it 3-1 in the 26th minute, but Hardith Rangers restored their momentum after half-time: five more goals arrived across the match, including a pair for Bakayoko and a second for Ortega. The scoreline was emphatic; the shot count makes the imbalance rather difficult to file under coincidence.

No Stables players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.
The final score leaves little uncertainty about the result, but the route to it is worth noting: Stables controlled more possession and completed more dribbles, yet could not turn either into a single recorded shot. Hardith Rangers were more direct in the useful sense, repeatedly getting attempts on target and spreading the goals across several scorers. Bakayoko and Ortega led the individual returns, while Amaya helped set the tone early. For Stables, White's goal briefly interrupted the run of visitors’ scoring; it did not change the larger pattern. Seven goals and a 3.95 xG return tell the story of an attack that was already productive and then finished with unusual generosity.
