Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Millinston recorded 1.77 xG and scored once, a modest shortfall against the chances’ estimated quality. Bedforeham produced 4.59 xG and scored six, finishing above expectation by a little over a goal. The larger story is the volume behind that return: the visitors had 20 shots, 17 on target, against seven shots from Millinston, all on target. With a slight possession advantage of 52% to 48%, Bedforeham made its control count by repeatedly reaching shooting positions; the figures suggest a side creating chances at a rate that made the scoreline emphatic, even before its finishing ran ahead of the estimate. Millinston did find the net late, but one goal could not make much of a dent in that workload.

No Millinston players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The match was effectively shaped before the interval: Bedforeham scored in the 13th and 18th minutes, then Andrew Taylor made it three just before half-time. The visitors added two more after the break through Andrew Burnett, whose second and third goals came with assists from Luca Colombo and Sidiki Sidibe. Millinston showed enough persistence to find Khadim Diakhate in the 85th minute, assisted by Michael Cook, but Luis Garzon answered four minutes later. The 1-6 final score reflects not just a prolific forward display, but a sustained difference in how often each side could turn possession into attempts.
