Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Paiton Rangers at 0.51 xG and Woold at 6.19. The final 0-7 score therefore slightly exceeded Woold’s expected return, while Paiton Rangers finished without a goal despite their two shots, both on target. This was not a case of a side pinching a result from a handful of chances: Woold registered 27 shots and 23 on target, sustaining pressure and repeatedly getting into positions to score. Possession, at 53% for Paiton Rangers and 47% for Woold, tells only a small part of the story; the visitors’ advantage was in what they did with their attacks.

The first half established the scale of the task early. Issa Ouattara opened the scoring in the 10th minute, and Stuart Hamilton struck twice within two minutes to make it three before the half-hour. Further goals from Allan Carroll and Johannes Storm took the score to 5-0 by the 34th minute. Phillip Lewis added another after the break, with Johannes Storm completing the seven-goal tally in the 76th. The distribution of goals across the match mattered: Woold did not merely build a first-half lead and then wait for the clock to finish its duties.

Paiton Rangers: No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

Woold:

• Stuart Hamilton (9.1) - Scored twice and provided three assists, shaping the match at both ends of Woold’s attacking work.
• Allan Carroll (7.3) - Scored once and assisted Stuart Hamilton’s first goal.
• Johannes Storm (7.3) - Scored twice, adding to Woold’s early momentum and its later total.

For Paiton Rangers, the 19 dribbles and marginally greater possession offered activity without enough attacking volume to alter the result: two shots against Woold’s 27 is a severe imbalance, however tidy the passing figures look. Woold matched the hosts on tackles and fouls, but its shot count and accuracy tell the more consequential story. The 0-7 result was emphatic, and the xG figures suggest it was built on a stream of chances rather than a freakish succession of improbable finishes.
