The midfield trio dominated the centre of the park, winning the ball back quickly and launching swift attacks. Humenne tried to play out from the back but were repeatedly caught in possession. Their 4-2-3-1 struggled to cope with Bytca’s intensity, and once the home side scored early, the visitors had to chase the game, which only played into Bytca’s hands. The fourth goal was a perfect example of their counter-attacking prowess.

Bytca’s centre-forward was the star of the show, scoring twice and leading the line with power and intelligence. The attacking midfielder also shone, providing two assists and dictating play in the final third. In defence, Bytca’s right-back was a constant overlap threat, contributing to the attack while remaining solid at the back. For Humenne, their goalscorer showed good movement for the header, and their goalkeeper made several fine saves to prevent an even heavier defeat.
