Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Branbris scored six from 4.39 xG, an over-performance of 1.61 goals. That is a substantial return above the chance-quality estimate, though 17 shots on target from 18 attempts gives some context: the finishing was not being tested against an empty afternoon. Crostenton recorded 0.01 xG and no shots, so their zero on the scoreboard was an accurate reflection of a near-total absence of goal threat. Possession was close at 51% to 49%, but the ball share did not translate into comparable attacking output. The difference was not control measured by possession; it was what Branbris did whenever possession became a chance.

The match was effectively settled in the opening quarter-hour, when Jose Herrera scored twice and Paul Elliott added a goal, with the two also setting up one another. Branbris then extended the lead before half-time, and the second-half card entries did not alter the score. Six goals to none is a wide margin by any sensible accounting, and the shot figures underline why: Crostenton had no attempt to interrupt the hosts’ work. Even the corners were nearly level, which is a small statistical reminder that matching a count is not the same as matching a performance.

• Crostenton had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.
