Ball possession:

In a match where the scoreline told the real story more than the raw numbers, Welwalo showed greater cutting edge in both penalty areas. Though the official statistical record curiously listed ball possession at 0–0 and shots on target at 0–0 for both sides, the decisive moments came when Welwalo took their chances and Mebrat Hayl failed to capitalise on their own periods of pressure.

Passes:

Welwalo struck first, capitalising on early momentum to put Mebrat Hayl on the back foot. The visitors responded after the interval, levelling the tie and setting up a nervy finish. But as the game edged into its final phase, Welwalo found a second goal that proved enough to settle a tight contest and secure a 2–1 victory.
