Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Millock Albion’s 3.63 xG against three goals represents a modest underperformance, while Barthmough Villa scored twice from 1.49 xG, finishing above the chance-quality estimate. The numbers point to a meaningful difference in how often the sides created threatening opportunities: Millock had 18 shots, including 12 on target, against Villa’s seven shots and five on target. Villa’s 15 corners to Millock’s three tell a different part of the afternoon, with the hosts finding repeated routes to set pieces without matching the visitors’ volume of shots. Millock’s higher xG and shot count support the result, though Villa’s efficiency kept the contest close.

• No Barthmough Villa players reached a rating of 7.0.

Villa’s two quick replies after Alvez opened the scoring showed the hosts could punish Millock, and the 15 corners underline how often they were able to press for another opening. But Millock carried the greater threat across the match, with more than twice as many attempts and a substantial xG advantage. The visitors’ front-foot start did not prevent Villa from taking the lead; their response after falling behind again did prove decisive. The final 3-2 score leaves Millock with the points and Villa with a convincing set-piece tally, which is not quite the same thing.
