Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Wigham Cown recorded 2.68 xG and scored three, exceeding the chance-quality estimate by 0.32. Winghton produced 3.78 xG and scored four, also finishing 0.22 above its estimate. Both sides converted a little more than the chances, on this measure, would ordinarily suggest; the difference was that Winghton generated the larger total and put 13 of its 18 shots on target, compared with Wigham Cown's nine from 13. Possession was close, but the visitors' extra shots and higher xG point to a side that created more sustained danger. Wigham Cown were efficient enough to make a contest of it, but not enough to cancel that advantage.

The scoreline swung in useful directions for neither side for very long: Winghton struck first, Wigham Cown moved ahead in the first half, and the visitors then supplied three second-half goals. Alvez restored hope at 72', but Bajrić's goal ten minutes later proved decisive. The final figures underline how little separated the teams in possession and corners, while the shooting numbers offer a less diplomatic account. Wigham Cown tackled more and dribbled slightly more; Winghton took more shots, tested the target more often and scored one extra goal. In a 3-4 match, that last statistic has a habit of becoming the whole report.
