Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Shamwort Park produced 3.76 xG and scored eight, an extraordinary return well above the chance-quality estimate. That is emphatic finishing on top of a substantial attacking performance: 16 shots, 14 on target and 11 corners gave the visitors plenty of opportunities to keep pressure on. Birch Bil United registered 0.01 xG and no shots, finishing just short of that already negligible estimate. Their 53% possession and 80% pass accuracy did not translate into attempts, while Shamwort Park made its 47% possession count by repeatedly getting the ball into shooting positions.

No Birch Bil United player reached a recorded rating of 7.0 or higher. The scoreline was settled early, with four Shamwort Park goals inside the opening 28 minutes, but the visitors continued to add to it after the break. Their eight goals matched the match total exactly, while Birch Bil United ended with no attempt to trouble the goalkeeper. The possession figures offer a curious footnote, not a rebuttal: Birch Bil United had more of the ball, and Shamwort Park did rather more with theirs.
