Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Burne Park scored six from 3.6 xG, an overperformance of 2.4 goals; Regisham United scored once from 0.79 xG, a smaller overperformance of 0.21. The hosts’ 16 shots, including 13 on target, show why they kept producing danger, even if the final score ran well ahead of the chance-quality estimate. Regisham United had more of the ball and won more corners, but managed only three shots, all on target. Possession offered territory; it did not, on this occasion, supply much of a threat. The gap between the six goals and the xG estimate points to particularly sharp finishing from Burne Park, rather than a chance count that independently predicted a rout.

The early cards gave the first half a rather busy administrative side: five bookings for Burne Park across the match, against one for Regisham United, with none of the cards changing the numerical balance through a dismissal. Burne Park established its lead before the break, then added two more goals shortly after it. Jorge Alvez briefly put a mark on the visitors’ side of the scoreline at 58', but Burne Park still had the final word through Ronnie Miller in the 81st minute. The scoreboard’s 6-1 margin was emphatic, even allowing for the considerable help of finishing beyond the xG forecast.
