The report
The goals came in a brisk spell: Nuez opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, Euclides Semedo added another two minutes later, and Nuez struck again before half-time. His third arrived in the 78th minute, completing the scoring. Chirkinston managed five shots, three on target, and an xG of 0.96, but could not turn that limited output into a goal. The 50-50 possession split makes the contrast plain: the ball was shared; the more dangerous work was not.

Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Grazes Town scored four from an xG of 3.83, a small over-performance that sits comfortably within the shape of the match rather than requiring any grand theory. Fourteen of their 17 shots were on target, with seven corners adding to the pressure; this was a steady stream of serious attempts, not a score built from one improbable strike. Chirkinston’s 0.96 xG from five shots suggests a few worthwhile openings, but no goal. The visitors had 50% possession and completed 82% of their passes, yet those figures did not translate into enough threatening attempts. The difference was in the quality and volume of the chances, and Grazes Town made that difference count.
- Chirkinston had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.
The final 4-0 was emphatic, but not mysterious: Grazes Town generated far more attempts and put most of them on target, while Chirkinston found no answer in the scoring column. Nuez supplied the finishing, Richardson helped establish the early cushion, and Grazes Town kept adding pressure after the visitors had shared possession evenly. Chirkinston did record more dribbles and tackles, but those efforts could not bridge the gap in shots or chances. In the end, an even share of the ball proved a poor substitute for an even share of the danger.
