Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Earridde’s 5.83 xG against four goals points to a little under-finishing, though the difference is hardly a crisis that requires a committee. The hosts generated 25 shots and put 22 on target, creating a sustained flow of chances rather than relying on one bright spell. Standson United’s 0.79 xG from three shots was modest, but their single goal from that return represents slight over-performance: Bruno Rossi’s 87th-minute finish briefly put a mark on a match otherwise shaped by Earridde’s attacking pressure. The possession split, 52% to 48%, was close; the shot count was not.

The first-half goals from James Willis and Torben Andersen gave Earridde a platform, and the pair each finished with two goals and an assist. Willis added his second in the 64th minute, restoring a three-goal cushion after the break. Standson United found a late reply, but Andersen scored again in the 90th minute to make the final score 4 - 1. The match offered a useful reminder that possession can be shared while the chances are very much not.

No Standson United players reached a rating of 7.0 or higher.
