What happened: Joel Farabee scored in the closing minutes for late insurance. The finish stretched the lead beyond a one-possession margin.

Why it matters: Late insurance goals narrow the comeback window and simplify final-minute assignments. The extra cushion lets a leading side protect the net instead of defending a one-goal edge.

What to watch: Watch for the final horn to confirm the result and Farabee's final line.
