Best fix for a pipe repair on a bend?

Hello!

Only myself to blame, using the jigsaw as I was taking up the bathroom floorboards and the one board I didn't look under ... Had the H&C feed.

If it was on a straight I'd be quite happy to use these copper patch repairs but as the cut is on a bend I'm assuming you don't get an adequate seal.

What is the recommended fix for this? I don't have a pipe bender so from a cost perspective would prefer to avoid removing and replacing but if that's the recommendation I'll have to make the investment.

Sorry for lack of response, didn't see the notification! Thanks all, certainly I won't be winning any prizes for "best soldered joint" but as you say, for a first stab the most important thing is that it's water tight, which it is. I've also had the hot, hot, hot running through for a while and so far so good.
