  • 37 intercepted passes: Their 4-1-4-1 formation created a midfield black hole
  • 2.3 km more distance covered than Damatola (credit to that relentless #8)

Why Analysts Love Ugly Wins

Coming Fixtures: Probability vs Passion

With games against [TEAM A] and [TEAM B] looming, our model gives Black Bulls:

  • 42% chance of continental qualification
