Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Clinck United scored four from 4.68 xG, a slight underperformance against the quality of their chances, despite making four goals look like a perfectly reasonable return. Their 21 shots, 17 on target and 57% possession describe an attack that kept generating pressure rather than relying on a single decisive moment. Ipshamswe Athletic scored once from 0.88 xG: close to their chance-quality estimate, but their four shots left little room to build a lasting response. The visitors did find the net between Clinck United’s quick-fire goals, yet the broader numbers point to a match controlled by the hosts.

The early exchange of bookings gave the opening stretch a little extra edge, but Clinck United soon made the more consequential use of the ball. Paul Cordier assisted the first two goals, and the hosts were three ahead by the 40th minute; Burgos then completed his hat-trick in the second half. Ipshamswe Athletic managed three shots on target from four attempts, but the difference in volume was stark. The scoreline was emphatic, and the underlying chance totals say it was no statistical accident.

No Ipshamswe Athletic player reached a 7.0 rating in the available records.
