Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Faven Rovers scored three from an xG of 2.24, an over-performance of 0.76 goals; Marwenor Athletic scored once from 1.13, finishing 0.13 below its estimate. The figures support the result without suggesting that every chance fell neatly into place: Faven Rovers generated 10 shots, eight on target, against five and four for Marwenor Athletic. The visitors were reasonably productive with the attempts they managed, but Faven Rovers supplied more volume and the more consequential finishing. Their 53% possession was a modest edge rather than a stranglehold, while four corners to one also point to more sustained attacking pressure. The match turned after the interval: Seungwoo Jeong put the hosts back in front on 66 minutes, and Nilson Pires added the third late enough to make the contest’s remaining arithmetic rather less inviting for the visitors.

No Marwenor Athletic players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The scoreline reflects a clear advantage for Faven Rovers, though not a match without a response from Marwenor Athletic. Allan Carroll levelled a minute after Nilson Pires had opened the scoring, and the visitors’ four shots on target show they did more than merely attend to the defensive paperwork. But Faven Rovers found the decisive second goal, then kept enough control to add another before the final minutes. The six yellow cards and 30 combined fouls gave the afternoon a sturdy edge; neither side required a red card to make its point. For the hosts, the practical difference was simple: greater attacking output, Nilson Pires in excellent scoring form, and three goals to Marwenor Athletic’s one.
