Peterborough recorded one more total attempt, but the distribution of shots on target is more informative than that narrow difference. Bradford established an early lead and extended it after the hour, leaving the final part of the contest to be played with a two-goal margin.
The second goal was not simply a last-minute addition: it arrived in the 67th minute, increasing the cushion with more than twenty minutes still to play. This is a reading of the recorded sequence and statistics, rather than a claim to have witnessed every passage of play or to know the quality of every attempt. The final score also belongs to a cup tie and should not be added to a league table.
