The visitors’ finishing was sharper than the chance-quality model expected, but the underlying volume was already emphatic: 22 shots, 16 on target, against six shots and four on target for Ilker County. Possession was almost even, at 51% to 49%, yet it did not translate into an even contest. Kirkbymowel moved the ball more accurately and repeatedly created attempts; the scoreboard’s six-goal margin had a substantial supply of chances behind it.

• Ilker County had no recorded performers rated 7.0 or higher.

For Ilker County, Israel Morales’s equaliser, assisted by Weijie Hong, briefly restored parity after the visitors’ fifth-minute opener. It was a moment of genuine response, but Kirkbymowel answered with five more goals, including three from Steven Wilson. The visiting side’s six goals were spread across the opening 63 minutes, with the first five arriving before the half-hour mark had become a memory.

The statistics underline the difference without requiring much embellishment: Kirkbymowel had more than three times as many shots, put 16 on target and finished with higher pass accuracy. The visitors also committed more fouls and collected four yellow cards, so their control came with a certain amount of paperwork. Ilker County kept possession close and had more dribbles, but neither measure could compensate for the gulf in attacking output. At 1-6, the match was not decided by a narrow edge; it was decided by how often one side reached the dangerous end of the pitch and made the visit count.
