From the outset, Churn Red pressed high and moved the ball with purpose, as evidenced by their 52% possession and 86% pass accuracy. The opening goal came early, in the 2nd minute, when Gilberto Da Costa finished a well-placed cross from Norbert Fischer. This set the tone for the game, with Khadim Diakhate doubling the lead in the 28th minute after a slick assist from Babacar Souare. The hosts continued to press, and Diakhate added a third before halftime, both goals underlining their attacking intent. After the break, Lindomar Da Silva scored twice, once in the 49th minute and again in the 78th, rounding off a comprehensive display of offensive efficiency. Despite the comfortable scoreline, Fingfort did manage to produce a few shots and corners, but their efforts lacked the quality needed to trouble the resilient Churn Red defense and goalkeeper.

Tactically, Churn Red outperformed their opponents in nearly every department, especially in shot creation and conversion. Their expected goals (xG) of 3.19 exceeded the actual tally, indicating they were slightly fortunate not to score even more. Conversely, Fingfort's xG of 1.11 suggests they were somewhat wasteful with their limited chances. The game was characterized by disciplined pressing, with Fingfort committing more tackles (11 to 8) but failing to break down the hosts' organized backline. The yellow cards for Lindomar Da Silva and Rainer Müller reflect a game played with intensity, if not always finesse. The result underscores the importance of clinical finishing and tactical discipline, both of which Churn Red demonstrated convincingly.
