Match Overview

From the opening whistle, Logan Lightning seized control of the midfield and imposed their game plan on the visitors.

A sharp through ball split the Bulldogs' backline, and the Lightning striker finished calmly past the goalkeeper.

The second goal arrived midway through the first half when a well-worked corner was headed home at the near post. Capalaba struggled to create clear chances, with their forwards isolated against a well-organised Logan defense. The scoreline remained 2–0 at the break.

Second-Half Control
