Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Jaro Saikkonen and Tino Kasurinen struck in each half as HaPK beat KJP 2-0 in the Kolmonen, with Saku Kvist's composed display earning him the man-of-the-match award as HaPK now prepare to host KoPa on 28 July. KJP dominated possession early but could not turn it into clear chances, and the visitors grew into the contest as the first half wore on.

The turning point arrived in the 30th minute when Jaro Saikkonen fired HaPK ahead, punishing KJP for failing to capitalise on their early pressure. KJP's frustrations boiled over with yellow cards for Roniel Goncalves dos Santos and Benjamin Bajrovic, and Tino Kasurinen sealed the win with a clinical finish in the 87th minute after KJP had pushed forward in search of an equaliser.

HaPK controlled the game on possession with 55% to KJP's 45%, and the sides shared six corners each, suggesting KJP could not turn their early promise into sustained pressure. Saku Kvist was the standout player with a rating of 7.6 out of ten, anchoring the midfield without scoring. CheckLive's model clearly favoured KJP before kick-off, but the result did not confirm that prediction, as HaPK's efficiency told the real story. HaPK now face KoPa on 28 July.
