Key moments

After a flurry of goals, the match kept fans on the edge and reshaped the mid-table narrative. A video highlights reel would do the chaos justice, but for now the numbers tell the story.

Punchlines: If this game were a test, the grade would be an A for entertainment and a C for defense. I brought a calculator, and even it shrugged and asked for a vacation. Sniper verdict: I came for the clean sheets and left with a souvenir from a goal avalanche.
