Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Yeoburbor scored five from 3.74 xG, an over-performance of 1.26 goals, while Rottle United scored once from 0.79 xG, slightly exceeding its estimate. The gap in chance volume was the clearest tactical difference: 16 shots and 14 on target for the hosts, against three shots, all on target, for the visitors. Rottle United gathered corners but rarely converted that territorial foothold into shots; Yeoburbor needed far fewer set pieces to make its pressure count. The final margin was emphatic, though the xG figures suggest the finishing made it more emphatic still.

• No Rottle United players reached a recorded rating of 7.0 or higher.

The early exchange briefly made this look like a more even contest: Yeoburbor struck first, and Xinping Boon levelled four minutes later. David Hobbs changed the shape of the afternoon with his 42nd-minute goal, then scored again five minutes after the restart. From there, the hosts added two more in the closing stretch, with Alfred Richter assisting both. The numbers tell a coherent story rather than a perfect one: possession was relatively close, and Rottle United took more corners, but Yeoburbor produced the far greater volume of attempts and kept converting its advantage into goals. In the end, Yeoburbor won 5-1; the visitors had plenty of corners to consider on the journey home.
