Expected Goals (xG) Analysis

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Hembort Park at 0.79 xG and Willock United at 3.43. The final 1-4 score therefore saw both sides outscore their estimates: Hembort Park by 0.21 and Willock United by 0.57. That is not a vast departure from the chances measured, but it does mean the visitors finished a little more generously than the estimate expected, while the hosts made their limited opportunity count. The shot totals give the tactical outline: Willock United had 16 attempts, including 12 on target, against three attempts from Hembort Park, all on target. Equal possession did not translate into equal pressure. Hembort Park recorded more dribbles and tackles, but Willock United turned its attacking volume into four goals and kept producing after the hosts had equalised.

Hembort Park had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

• Stan Giroux (8.1) - Scored twice, assisted Luis Daza’s opener and delivered the strongest individual contribution in a four-goal away win.
• Luis Daza (7.3) - Scored twice after receiving a yellow card, leaving the match with a busy afternoon’s work neatly accounted for.

The equal possession figure is the statistic most likely to mislead anyone looking for a balanced contest. Hembort Park had more dribbles, more tackles and one more corner, but Willock United required neither a possession advantage nor a corner advantage to build a three-goal margin. Its 12 shots on target, against three from the hosts, were the clearer account of who spent more of the match testing the opposition.

After Luis Daza put the visitors ahead, Seungwoo Jeong restored parity four minutes later, giving Hembort Park a foothold without changing the wider pattern. Willock United then scored twice in three minutes through Stan Giroux, before Daza completed the 1-4 result in the 85th minute. The hosts’ equaliser was a genuine response, but the visitors’ sustained shot volume proved more than a brief spell: it gave Willock United the firmer grip on the game and the final score to match.
