Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Wimbley United scored six from 3.6 xG, overperforming the estimate by 2.4 goals; Dunden Town scored once from 1.23 xG, a modest underperformance of 0.23. The figures suggest a sizeable difference between chance quality and finishing, especially for the hosts, whose 13 shots on target from 16 attempts show that the goalkeepers had a busy afternoon. Possession was evenly split, so this was not a case of Wimbley United simply monopolising the ball. Rather, the hosts made their attacks count with unusual abundance, while Dunden Town managed four efforts on target but found only one goal. Six goals from 3.6 xG is an emphatic return; the estimate is not a verdict, but it does suggest that repeating this exact scoring rate would be an ambitious plan.

• No Dunden Town players reached a rating of 7.0.

The match had its share of cautions before and after the goals began to accumulate: seven yellow cards in total, five to Wimbley United and two to Dunden Town. Yet the discipline tally did not alter the central story. Dunden Town briefly drew level through Mahmoud Saad, assisted by Jim Edwards, but Wimbley United restored the lead after the break and then stretched it with four more goals. Ernesto Martin supplied the decisive double in quick succession, while Darren Green and Carlos Rodrigues each finished with two goals and an assist. A 6-1 result is not a close reading of the afternoon; it is the sort of score that leaves the equal possession figure looking like a small, technically correct detail.
