Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Bedon Town produced 3.13 xG and scored three, a close match between chance quality and the final return. Henckton recorded 1.47 xG but managed one goal, finishing 0.47 below that estimate. The shot count helps explain the balance of the game: Bedon Town had 16 attempts, 10 on target, while Henckton had seven attempts and five on target. The hosts’ greater volume and slightly higher possession—53% to 47%—gave them more opportunity to build pressure; Henckton, meanwhile, made a credible amount of its smaller supply count as shots on target. The numbers describe a victory grounded in sustained attacking production, not simply a pair of fortunate moments.

No players reached a recorded rating of 7.0 or higher for either side.

The opening goals offered little time for either side to settle into a careful plan. Ivan Cvetković put Bedon Town ahead, with Eckhard Köhler providing the assist; Henckton answered through Jorge Alvez before the opening five minutes were out. Bedon Town regained the lead through Eric Moreau at 36 minutes, assisted by Julio Cortes, then had to wait until John Bailey scored in the 83rd minute to make the margin two. That late goal made the final scoreline emphatic enough, though the underlying shot and xG figures suggest the hosts had been building toward it for much of the afternoon.

The discipline ledger filled steadily alongside the scoring one: Henckton collected three yellow cards to Bedon Town’s two, while neither side received a red. Henckton also made 15 tackles to the hosts’ 10, a sign of the defensive work required as Bedon Town generated more attacks. Yet the visitors kept the contest alive after the early equaliser and put five of their seven shots on target. In the end, Bedon Town’s superior volume, three goals and late insurance proved decisive; Henckton had enough of the ball and enough shots on target to remain involved, but not enough finished chances to change the result.
