Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Bring Col Vale registered 1.76 xG but scored none, while Upplecaston scored four from 2.59 xG. That leaves the visitors 1.41 goals above their estimate and the hosts 1.76 below theirs: a substantial difference between the chances each side’s figures suggest they created and the goals that actually arrived. The shot counts add useful context. Bring Col Vale managed seven attempts, all on target, while Upplecaston had 12 attempts and nine on target. With possession level at 50% apiece, the result was not built on dominating the ball; it came from Upplecaston making its attacking opportunities count far more decisively. The hosts’ accuracy deserved better than a blank, but accuracy alone does not compel the ball to cross the line.
- No Bring Col Vale players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.
The opening two goals arrived by the 23rd minute, putting Upplecaston in control well before the final pair settled the margin at 4-0. Richard Evans was booked in the third minute, but the available figures record no red cards for either side. Bring Col Vale had more dribbles, 15 to 10, and slightly higher pass accuracy, 82% to 80%; neither measure altered the central fact that the visitors produced four goals from fewer possession advantages than the scoreline might suggest. Upplecaston also led corners 5-1, while fouls and tackles were close. The final result was emphatic, and the match statistics show why: not a monopoly of the ball, but a sharp separation in finishing.
