Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate gave Shedbury City 0.76 xG and Carston Park 4.09. The 0-6 scoreline therefore had Carston Park finishing 1.91 goals above its estimate, while Shedbury City scored none from its limited 0.76. That is a substantial return for the visitors, but the underlying balance was emphatic too: 18 shots, 15 on target, against three shots, all on target. With possession at 49%-51%, this was not a case of one side simply keeping the ball away from the other. Carston Park made its possession count by repeatedly turning attacks into attempts, and its four first-half goals left the match with little suspense to maintain.

No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher were recorded for Shedbury City.

For Shedbury City, three shots and a respectable share of possession offered little protection once Carston Park found its rhythm. The hosts had the same number of corners as the visitors and made more dribbles, but those details could not compensate for the gulf in attempts or the six goals conceded. Carston Park did collect four yellow cards, an unusually busy side-note to an otherwise commanding performance, yet none interrupted its scoring. The visitors’ 0-6 win was decisive on the scoreboard and supported by the volume of chances; the xG simply suggests they were even more clinical than the chances alone predicted.
