How the Match Unfolded
First Half
The tactical landscape shifted dramatically at 12 minutes as the Onside Game Changer took hold — the period yielded 2 goals, just enough to set the contest alight. By the interval it was impossible to call a winner. The contest was beautifully balanced, with everything still to play for.
Second Half
The tension was palpable at the restart, and the Fairplay Game Changer at 27 minutes only dialled it up — yet both sides held their nerve superbly through the rule change, refusing to blink. Both sides strained every sinew for a winner but the decisive blow never landed. A draw was the fairest outcome in a match where no team deserved to lose.
