Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Chishorourpe scored four from an xG of 3.29, finishing modestly above the chance-quality estimate; Stoncand Park scored twice from 1.88 xG, also a little above expectation. The figures support a result shaped by effective finishing on both sides, rather than an enormous gulf in the quality of chances. The hosts’ 16 shots, including 11 on target, compared with five on target from 11 attempts for the visitors. Possession was close at 52%-48%, so this was not a case of Chishorourpe simply keeping the ball out of reach. Their greater shot volume and 10-3 advantage in tackles point instead to a side that found more ways to press the game and turn that activity into attempts. Stoncand Park stayed dangerous through Inoue, but the hosts’ fourth goal gave the contest its final shape.

The 4 - 2 scoreline records an open match, but not one in which the visitors lacked a response: Stoncand Park twice found an equaliser after Chishorourpe had scored. The hosts’ reply to the first was particularly quick, with David Davies scoring nine minutes after Inoue’s first goal, and Antonio Lopez restored a two-goal cushion before the interval. When Inoue scored again in the 54th minute, the margin was back to one; Bernard Harrison supplied the decisive separation in the 73rd. Chishorourpe finished with the larger share of shots and more on-target efforts, while Stoncand Park had no corners and made three tackles to the hosts’ 10. The numbers fit a match where the visitors could strike, but the hosts repeatedly found the next answer.
