Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The xG figures tell a blunt story: Bedock produced 0.01 xG and no shots, while Brough Rovers recorded 3.34 xG from 15 attempts. Brough Rovers finished with four goals, modestly exceeding the chance-quality estimate, but the return was well supported by 12 shots on target and a steady supply of dangerous attempts. Bedock had 51% possession and three corners, yet none of that translated into a shot. The ball was shared; the meaningful opportunities were not. With Brough Rovers also making 12 tackles to Bedock’s five, the visitors paired their attacking pressure with a more active defensive response.

• Bedock: No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.
• Brough Rovers:
• Frank Ryan (7.6) - Scored twice, opening the scoring early and adding the final goal in the 90th minute.

For Bedock, the early yellow cards and the lack of a single attempt on goal left little room to turn possession into pressure. Their three corners and 17 dribbles show some activity, but activity alone does not trouble a goalkeeper. Brough Rovers were not dominant in possession or passing accuracy; they were simply far more effective where the match is decided, in front of goal. The visitors built on Frank Ryan’s fifth-minute opener, added two goals in quick succession after the break, and finished with another from Ryan. A 0 - 4 defeat is a clear margin, and the numbers make clear why: Brough Rovers created the chances, converted them, and left Bedock without a shot to answer back.
