East Bland Park had its two-goal cushion inside eight minutes, and St Darne Park responded quickly enough to keep the contest alive. Michel Lemoine’s 54th-minute goal brought the hosts back within one, but Mamadou Hien restored breathing room eleven minutes later. The late pair from Syed Gilbert turned that advantage into a clear 5-2 result; the closing yellow cards supplied a little bookkeeping while the scoreboard was already doing the talking. St Darne Park showed useful persistence and control of possession, but the shot count captures the limit of that control. East Bland Park was more direct, created far more attempts and left with the points.
