Expected Goals (xG) Analysis

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Porpe City at 3.2 xG and Brettle Thistle at 0.74. Six goals from 3.2 xG represents substantial over-performance for the hosts; the visitors also finished above their estimate, but by a much smaller margin, scoring once from 0.74. The contrast between 15 shots and 11 on target for Porpe City, against four shots and two on target for Brettle Thistle, helps explain why possession alone did not tell the story. The visitors held 57% of the ball, completed 84% of their passes and won eight corners, but those figures did not translate into enough shots or goals. Porpe City had only one corner and less of the ball, yet made far more of their attempts. Six goals is a generous return even for a side creating the better chances; the 6-1 scoreline records finishing at its most decisive.

The match swung back towards Porpe City quickly after Luis Pinto made it 2-1 at 39'. Vladimir štimac restored the two-goal margin three minutes later, and Lindomar Da Silva added his second in the 62nd minute. Later strikes from Christoph Koch and Bruno Rossi completed the result. The hosts’ two assists from Paulo Teixeira underline his influence in the final stages, while Christoph Koch both assisted and scored. Brettle Thistle did have more possession and dribbles, but the difference in shots on target—11 to two—was a plainer measure of which side made its attacks count.

No Brettle Thistle players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.
