 ## Flow log (Angular SPA)
 1. Host reaches `reveal` phase and runs `loadScoreboard()` (`GET /lobby/sessions/:code/scoreboard`).
 2. Host can start next round directly in SPA via `startNextRound()` (`POST /lobby/sessions/:code/rounds/next`) and then session hydrate (`GET /lobby/sessions/:code`) without page reload.
-3. Host can finish game directly in SPA via `finishGame()` (`POST /lobby/sessions/:code/finish`), rendering final leaderboard payload in the same shell.
+3. Host can finish game directly in SPA via `finishGame()` (`POST /lobby/sessions/:code/finish`), rendering winner + sorted final leaderboard (plus raw payload for debug) in the same shell.
 4. Player SPA renders final leaderboard from refreshed finished-session payload (sorted by score desc, nickname tiebreak) without leaving SPA route.
 5. Error/retry paths are implemented and covered:
    - scoreboard failure -> `scoreboardError` + retry button
