Woken Albion had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

• Carlos Castillo (8.1) - Scored twice and assisted Gareth Bennett in a decisive contribution to Melsorke Town’s five-goal return.

For Woken Albion, the late goal from Shigeo Takai, set up by Daniel Calado, provided a small return on a match in which their possession and passing accuracy looked respectable on paper. The difficulty was converting those spells into enough shots: four efforts on target from five attempts still brought only one goal, and the opportunity count left little room for error. Two first-half bookings also arrived before the hosts had found a way to curb the visitors’ threat.

Melsorke Town did not need to dominate possession to dominate the match. Its 12 tackles to Woken Albion’s four, along with the wide gap in shots, suggest a more forceful presence in the phases that mattered; the visitors also turned their strong second-half start into two goals within four minutes. Carlos Castillo was central to that burst and finished with two goals, while the late concession did little to blur the scale of the result. At 1-5, the scoreline was not a close reading of the afternoon. It was the afternoon’s clearest statistic.
