Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Peatton scored six from 2.86 xG, substantially outperforming the chance-quality estimate, while Thord scored none from 0.11 xG. The gap between the six goals and Peatton’s xG points to unusually clinical finishing on top of a steady supply of opportunities: ten shots found the target, and the goals arrived across the match rather than from one brief burst. Thord had 51% possession and six corners, but those measures yielded only one shot and no on-target attempts. The visitors had territory and set-piece opportunities; Peatton had the far more consequential actions.

Thord No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

The scoreline was emphatic, but the match statistics offer a useful distinction between control and threat. Thord edged possession, corners and pass accuracy, and both sides made ten tackles; none of those advantages translated into a shot on target. Peatton were more direct and more dangerous, using 12 dribbles to help turn their attacks into attempts, then finishing at a rate well beyond the xG forecast. A six-goal margin can make the contest look like a constant siege, but Thord did have the ball and corners. It was the finishing, and the almost complete absence of a response at the other end, that made the difference so stark.
