Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Southbrich recorded 3.75 xG and scored six, exceeding the chance-quality estimate by 2.25 goals. That is substantial overperformance, though 14 shots on target from 16 attempts shows the finishing was backed by an unusually accurate volume of efforts rather than a single fortunate moment. Whiell Thistle finished with 0.01 xG and no shots, so their 11 corners brought territory without producing a recorded attempt. The contrast is stark: Southbrich converted attacks into shots and goals, while Whiell Thistle’s set-piece count never became a test of the goalkeeper.

• Whiell Thistle: No players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The figures make the result more curious in one respect: possession and pass accuracy were level enough to suggest a broadly shared share of the ball, and Whiell Thistle won more corners. But the decisive measures belonged to Southbrich. They had 16 shots to none, made 14 of those efforts count as on target, and scored six times. Whiell Thistle’s corner advantage remained a statistic rather than a route back into the match.

The 6-0 scoreline was therefore no narrow escape or misleading late flourish. Southbrich had the sharper attack, a four-goal performance from Valdivino Da Silva, and enough accuracy to make the gap between possession and outcome irrelevant. Whiell Thistle kept the ball moving and found the corner flag often; Southbrich found the net six times.
