Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Thitwort’s 4.83 xG against four goals represents a slight underperformance against the Gazzetta chance-quality estimate, though not one likely to trouble the scoreboard. Borloch Vale recorded 0.61 xG and scored none, a smaller gap in absolute terms but a clear reflection of how little their three shots produced. The 21-3 shot count, including an 18-2 advantage on target, tells the sharper tactical story: Thitwort turned its chances into repeated pressure, even with only 47% possession. Borloch Vale had more of the ball and more corners, but did not convert that territorial measure into a comparable threat.

The defining stretch came between the 30th and 43rd minutes. Manuel Gomes opened the scoring, Eric Moreau added a second ten minutes later, and Ivan Cvetković made it three before the interval. Moreau then scored again six minutes into the second half. Four goals from 4.83 xG is not a case of finishing wildly beyond the numbers; it is a well-supported return, delivered with enough efficiency to settle the contest early.

Borloch Vale’s 53% possession, six corners and slightly higher pass accuracy show that the visitors were not simply absent from the match. But three shots, two on target and 0.61 xG left little room for a comeback, while Thitwort’s shot volume made the difference plain. The 4-0 result was emphatic without requiring possession of the ball as a souvenir: Thitwort did the more consequential work whenever it reached the attacking end.
