Defensively, Kairat's backline hardly broke a sweat, neutralizing Aktau's few counterattempts with ease.
Key Players
- Bayan Suleimenov (Kairat striker, inferred): Scored a brace and assisted another goal, consistently finding space.
- Nurbol Zhumaskaliyev (midfielder): Controlled the midfield with precise passing and two key assists.
- Kairat goalkeeper: Had little to do but recorded a clean sheet, boosting his confidence.
