The report
Somlitouton’s 5.36 xG and 12 goals tell two stories at once: they created excellent chances and finished far beyond what those chances would usually produce. Their 23 shots, 20 on target and 54% possession point to sustained pressure, while the goals arrived across both halves rather than in one brief flurry. Eccle City recorded 0 shots and 0.01 xG, so there was no attacking foothold from which to alter the pattern. The visitors’ three-goal start by 13 minutes established the scale of the task; their movement and combinations continued to find openings long after the result was settled.
The score was 5 - 0 at half-time and 8 - 0 by the 66th minute, but Somlitouton did not treat either milestone as a reason to put the afternoon away. Sulejman Starčević scored four, Abel Reyes added three, and Weijie Ng contributed two goals and two assists. Nuno Neves supplied three assists, including two for Martin Baker. Eccle City finished with three yellow cards and no shots, an afternoon in which defensive effort could not make up the distance between the sides. The final 0 - 12 was emphatic, and the underlying chance figures suggest the margin was not merely a statistical accident.
