Sougbord’s advantage was built less on monopolising possession than on making its attacks count and repeatedly testing the target. The sides shared eight dribbles apiece, and Hykersfier made more tackles, 10 to Sougbord’s eight; those numbers suggest the visitors were not simply absent from the contest. But four shots against 13 is a steep imbalance to overcome, even when one of those four becomes a goal. The six corners to five were close, as were pass accuracy figures, while the three yellow cards for each club gave the match a modest supply of bookkeeping. Sougbord kept its lead after the busy spell around half-time, then Meredith’s second goal settled a result that the chance quality had been pointing toward for some time.
