PS4 Broken Connector from Power Supply to Motherboard

Along with the connector breaking off the motherboard, I believe it took one of the pads with it. I have never had to repair a pad before and have looked up some guides on it, but none have been quite detailed enough. I am rather new to soldering, so even explaining some of the basic soldering terms to me might be helpful.

As for the other 3 pads, I believe I can just solder the connector back to those points.

I have attached a link to some pictures in hopes that it may prove beneficial in helping me repair this problem.

If the copper pads came off, then the board will have to be replaced.
