Ball possession:

Despite the emphatic scoreline, the official statistics painted a curious picture, recording ball possession at Ethiopia Bunna — 0 and Mekelle Kenema — 0, with both sides also logged as having 0 shots on target and 0 efforts on goal. While those figures clearly do not reflect the on-field reality of a 3-0 scoreline, they do highlight the limitations and inconsistencies that can still affect data capture in the league.

Passes:

What the numbers could not obscure, however, was Ethiopia Bunna’s control of the key moments. They were sharper in both penalty areas, more disciplined without the ball and far more clinical when chances did arrive, wrapping up the points with goals either side of half-time and a late third to kill off any faint hope of a Mekelle Kenema fightback.
