Eridge Wad 0 - 7 Carsholey

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate puts Carsholey at 5.14 xG and Eridge Wad at 0.01. Seven goals from 5.14 xG is a clear over-performance, while the hosts’ zero goals from 0.01 xG is essentially in line with the chances available. The 24 shots, 18 on target and 59% possession show how Carsholey repeatedly carried the game into dangerous areas; the scoreline reflects both that sustained pressure and finishing that ran ahead of the expected return. Eridge Wad managed four corners but no shots, leaving little attacking threat for the visitors to manage.

The first-half damage arrived early: Carl Nielsen scored in the fifth minute, Michael Taylor added another four minutes later, and Tristan Nicolas made it three before the half-hour. Carsholey continued after the break, with Nicolas scoring again and Taylor completing his brace. Stuart Powell and Mayo Ito also found the net. The visitors did collect two yellow cards, but Eridge Wad’s five cautions and 18 fouls tell of a difficult afternoon spent trying to interrupt a match that had already escaped them. The final margin was emphatic, and the absence of a single home shot made the task of mounting a reply rather theoretical.
