Ball possession:

Despite the scoreboard telling a clear story, the statistical record from the match paints a strangely empty picture, with the official data logging ball possession at 0–0 and both sides credited with zero shots on and off target. While the raw numbers evidently fail to capture the action that unfolded, the outcome itself was emphatic: Mebrat Hayl made their moments count, striking three times and conceding only once in a match defined by their superior composure in decisive areas.

Defense:

From the outset, Mebrat Hayl looked the more purposeful side, pressing high and moving the ball quickly into advanced areas. Their pressure told as they forced mistakes from Fasil Ketema’s back line and were rewarded with three goals spread across the contest, giving them control and the luxury of managing the tempo.

Face-to-face:

Fasil Ketema did find a response with a solitary goal, but it arrived too late to change the direction of the game. By then, Mebrat Hayl had already established a cushion and were content to sit a little deeper, protect their lead and play on the counter.
