Mild 7 - 0 Marrouck Villa

The first arrived after two minutes, and by the 25th Mild had scored four times, with Veselin Ivanov, Erik Delgado and Paul Tay joining Igor Jakšić on the scoresheet. The early burst left Marrouck Villa chasing a match that had already developed a substantial head start. Mild added three more after the break, while the visitors managed only three attempts and two on target. Possession was not overwhelming at 55 per cent, but the difference in what each side did with the ball was rather less subtle.

The second-half goals ensured the afternoon did not settle into a mere early rout followed by paperwork. Joseph Hunter, Davit Akhvlediani and Erik Delgado all scored after the interval, and Mild kept finding ways through even as the match’s outcome became difficult to disguise. Marrouck Villa won more dribbles, but that small statistical foothold brought little relief against the hosts’ sharp finishing. Mild leave with a 7-0 victory; the visitors leave with the less enviable lesson that a respectable share of possession is not much comfort when the other side keeps scoring.
