Expected Goals (xG) Analysis

The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Wathort Brach at 4.04 xG and Torthan at 1.82. The hosts scored five, exceeding their estimate by just under a goal; Torthan scored once from a figure that suggested more opportunities than the final return. That contrast, alongside 19 shots and 14 on target for Wathort Brach against nine and six for Torthan, points to the hosts generating the greater volume and making their pressure count. The xG figures also show that Torthan were not entirely absent from the contest, even if the second half belonged decisively to the home side.

The match began with an unexpectedly sharp edge: Torthan scored in the 14th minute, after yellow cards had already arrived for both sides. Wathort Brach levelled through Lindomar Da Silva before the break, then moved in front through Luis Pinto at 60 minutes. The sequence from there was emphatic: another Pinto goal, Weijie Hong’s finish and Luca Colombo’s late contribution carried the hosts to 5-1.

The statistical balance was not simply a matter of possession, which was close at 52%-48%, or passing accuracy, level at 80% apiece. Torthan had more corners, six tackles apiece were recorded, and the foul count was nearly even. But Wathort Brach took ten more shots and put eight more on target. The five-goal haul was a strong return against 4.04 xG; the broader picture is of a side that kept finding ways to turn its attacking advantage into goals, while Torthan could not keep pace after the interval.
