Patfor End kept the ball more often and passed more accurately, but Bebdenish created the much greater attacking pressure and built a result to match it.

Patfor End’s superior possession, passing accuracy and dribbling count offered signs of control, but not enough control in the areas that decide a match. Bebdenish were more direct in the practical sense: 26 attempts, 18 on target, and a steady stream of pressure reflected in the corners. The hosts did make their five shots count for two goals, yet the gulf in opportunity was too large to bridge. The 89th-minute finish made the scoreline 2-5; it did not disguise how thoroughly Bebdenish had shaped the afternoon.
