The turning point came in the 62nd minute when Kellan Gordon scored the winning goal for Notts County, securing a crucial three points. The team's performance was characterized by 75% pass accuracy and 404 total passes, demonstrating their control and dominance throughout the match.

With Tranmere's 49% ball possession and 14 total shots, the game appeared on paper to be relatively even. However, their efforts were hindered by 5 yellow cards and a lack of precision in front of goal. Despite this, they remain a formidable opponent, and Notts County's victory is a testament to their own strength and resilience.

The next fixture for Notts County is against Fleetwood Town on 06/09/2025 14:00 at Meadow Lane. We are eager to see the continuation of this winning streak, but with Fleetwood Town's recent results and their seemingly stronger side, it could be quite the challenge for the 'Pies. COYP!
