The game’s narrative was largely written in the first half, as Ramirez opened the scoring at 19' and then set up the second shortly after, at 35'. Bray Ive Wanderers, despite a disciplined effort and a surprising 11 corners, struggled to threaten the goal, registering no shots and an almost negligible xG of 0.01. The visitors’ defensive resilience was non-existent, with the home side’s relentless pressure and tactical fluidity culminating in a flurry of goals after the break. Roystock’s ability to convert chances was evident, with goals at 51', 68', 77', and 81', often assisted by the ever-creative Sebastien Cameron. The game was marred by a series of yellow cards, mostly from the hosts, but the game’s outcome was never in doubt after Ramirez’s early influence.

Tactically, Roystock City’s possession-based approach, with 55% of the ball and an 85% pass accuracy, allowed them to control the tempo and create high-quality chances. Bray Ive Wanderers’ 11 corners did little to threaten the home side’s goal, which was protected by a solid defensive effort and four key saves. The Wanderers’ dribbling was more frequent, but their inability to convert possession into shots on target was their undoing. The game’s over-performance relative to the xG underlines Roystock’s ruthless finishing, turning a game that could have been close into a rout. Bray Ive Wanderers’ defensive lapses and lack of attacking potency made this a match to forget quickly.
