AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Bate broke the deadlock in the 16th minute when V. Varaksa converted an assist from E. Rusakov to put the hosts ahead. Sion levelled matters just before half-time, W. Boteli finishing off a chance created by R. Nivokazi in the 42nd minute to make it 1-1, and that scoreline held all the way to the final whistle.

Sion dominated possession and produced far more efforts on goal, with their control of the ball translating into a heavier volume of shots than their hosts managed across the contest.
