Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The chance-quality estimate put Witcheles at 3.1 xG and Mardwing at 1.36. The actual 6 - 0 scoreline therefore reflects a substantial finishing surplus for Witcheles—six goals from chances valued at just over three—while Mardwing finished without a goal despite creating opportunities worth more than one. That gap does not make the result a statistical mirage: Witcheles put 11 of 14 shots on target, compared with five of Mardwing’s six, and scored three times before the half-hour. Mardwing had 53% possession and eight corners, but control of the ball did not translate into control of the decisive moments. The visitors’ chance value suggests they were not entirely without threat; the finishing, at least on this occasion, had other plans.
- No Mardwing player reached a rating of 7.0.
The contest was heavily shaped by Witcheles’ three goals in the opening 25 minutes, then extended after the break by Norbert Fischer, Martinho Ferreira and Khadim Diakhate. The home side’s scoring was spread across six different goals, with Martinho Ferreira the only player to score twice; Adilson Varela’s two assists also gave him a clear hand in the later stages. Mardwing matched Witcheles for pass accuracy and surpassed them in possession, corners and dribbles, but those measures could not compensate for the difference in shots on target or the absence of a goal.
The cards were the only interruptions to a match otherwise governed by Witcheles’ attacking return: Weijie Hong was booked at 35 minutes, and Khadim Diakhate received a yellow at 58 before scoring 15 minutes later. For Mardwing, the figures offer some evidence of territory and a chance or two, but no change to the result. Witcheles won 6 - 0, a margin built early and confirmed with authority after the interval.
