In a tightly contested match, AFC Fylde edged out Chorley FC with a narrow 1-0 victory. The early goal scored by the home team in the 16th minute set the tone for the game. Despite the limited scoreline, AFC Fylde's early lead allowed them to dictate the tempo of the match, forcing Chorley FC to chase the game. Chorley’s attempts to equalize were persistent; however, their four offsides reflected a lack of precision in their attacking play and disrupted their rhythm.

AFC Fylde's defensive discipline was evident, despite receiving three yellow cards. They effectively managed the game and maintained their composure without conceding any red cards, despite committing 18 fouls compared to Chorley’s 10. The high number of fouls could suggest Fylde's commitment to break up Chorley's play, contributing significantly to maintaining their narrow lead.

The set-piece opportunities were limited, with AFC Fylde earning five corners to Chorley's three. Although these did not convert into goals, Fylde's superior corner count highlighted their relatively greater attacking threat. Chorley's inability to capitalize on their fewer set-piece chances further underlined their offensive struggles. It was AFC Fylde's robust defensive organization and tactical discipline that cumulatively ensured their success in this encounter.
