Eight runs in ten finished between 29 Spain and 14 Hong Kong China, half of them between 16 Spain and 1 Hong Kong China, with the middle run at 6 Spain.

Those are gaps rather than scorelines. How much scoring the match produces is drawn separately — between 32 and 75 points in eight runs out of ten — so one bar covers many scores. The middle run above is 23-17 on a tight afternoon and 35-29 on an open one.
