The 5-2 scoreline reflects Wimbe Park’s clinical finishing and capacity to restore control quickly after Pedro Guzman pulled one back at 51 minutes. Michel Lemoine scored four minutes later, and Nilson Pires added his third at 68, leaving the visitors with a sizeable task that Khadim Diakhate’s late goal could not change. Waterth Rovers had more shots and a narrow xG advantage, but the hosts’ 19 dribbles and six shots on target accompanied a far more decisive return in front of goal. The visitors’ three yellow cards added a less useful kind of activity to their afternoon; the scoreboard, meanwhile, remained perfectly clear about which side had made its chances count.
