Expected Goals (xG) Analysis

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Patelder at 2.34 xG and Ston Roch Town at 2.22. Against those figures, Patelder scored 3, outperforming its estimate by 0.66, while Ston Roch Town scored once, 1.22 below its mark. The visitors’ early goal showed they could turn an opportunity into a lead; the final difference came in conversion, not a gulf in chances. Both sides registered eight shots on target, from 11 attempts for Patelder and 10 for Ston Roch Town, so the home side’s three-goal return was particularly efficient. Patelder had a slight possession edge, 53% to 47%, and two assists from Pedro Chagas helped turn that control into goals after the break. Six corners for the visitors to two for the hosts suggest Ston Roch Town also found ways to apply pressure, even if the scoreboard declined to reward the persistence.

• No Ston Roch Town players reached a rating of 7.0.

For Patelder, the timing of the response mattered as much as the final margin. Philippe Robert levelled just before half-time, and Michel Lemoine put the hosts ahead a minute after his side had added to the night’s yellow-card count. Pedro Chagas then supplied Philippe Robert again to make it 3-1, giving Patelder a clear result in a match whose underlying chance totals were much closer. Ston Roch Town had the shots and corners to remain in the contest, but could not add to its ninth-minute opener. The visitors leave with a familiar irritation: enough opportunity to imagine a different score, and not enough finishing to make that imagination official.
