Ball possession:
Played in tense, tactical conditions, the contest never truly opened up into a free‑flowing spectacle. Both teams cancelled each other out for long spells, and neither was able to seize sustained control of possession. Official statistics curiously registered ball possession as Mebrat Hayl — 0 and Ethiopian Medhin — 0, reflecting more the limitations of data capture on the day than the balance of play, which appeared broadly even over the 90 minutes.
