Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: South Blyne’s seven goals came from 4.35 xG, an over-performance of 2.65 goals: clinical finishing turned a strong chance haul into a rout. The visitors put 16 of their 19 shots on target, while Bridne Rovers recorded no shots and just 0.01 xG. That contrast tells the tactical story more plainly than possession, which was relatively close at 54% to 46%. South Blyne converted its control into repeated attempts and goals; Bridne Rovers never found a route to test the opposing defence. The visitors’ dismissal at 37' might have offered a foothold, but the scoreline and shot count show that it did not alter the match’s direction.

No Bridne Rovers players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The 0 - 7 defeat leaves little room for consolation in the home performance: Bridne Rovers managed four corners and 12 dribbles, but neither figure produced a shot. South Blyne had the sharper edge in front of goal, and its three-goal margin at the interval meant the second half was about managing a result already well beyond reach. The red card made the visitors’ task less tidy, not less successful; they still scored twice after the break and finished with seven. The numbers agree on the broad verdict, which is unusually helpful of them.
