Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Coldswook City scored once from 0.98 xG, almost exactly matching the quality of the chances they created. Marer Villa scored three from 2.89 xG, a slight over-performance rather than a dramatic departure from the chance-quality estimate. The shot count gives the clearest picture of the difference: Marer Villa recorded 12 attempts, with 11 on target, while Coldswook City managed five shots and three on target. The hosts’ eight corners to the visitors’ two show that they did find ways to apply pressure, but the visitors’ superior shot volume and 84% pass accuracy suggest they were more effective at turning possession into attempts. The xG totals and final score tell a consistent story: Marer Villa created more, and finished just a little better than the numbers expected.

No Coldswook City players reached a rating of 7.0.

The equaliser from Israel Morales, assisted by Friedrich Unger, briefly brought Coldswook City level after the visitors had opened the scoring through Nilson Pires. But Marer Villa restored their lead through Pedro Chagas in the 81st minute, then added Michel Lemoine’s goal four minutes later. That late pair gave the visitors a more comfortable margin and left little ambiguity about the final score.

For Coldswook City, the eight corners offered evidence of pressure, but the five-shot total limited the return on those opportunities. Marer Villa were more productive with the ball, and their 11 shots on target made the difference more tangible than possession alone. The visitors leave with a 3 - 1 win built on volume, accuracy and two late goals; Coldswook City can point to their response after the break, though not to a sustained answer.
