Expected Goals (xG) Analysis:

The chance-quality estimate put Croutton City at 0.01 xG and Sougbord at 4.28. The final 0-4 score was a little below the visitors’ expected return, while Croutton City’s actual total matched the near-zero threat in their estimate. That gap was not a matter of one fortunate finish disguising a quiet afternoon: Sougbord put 15 of 20 shots on target and scored four times, sustaining pressure across the match. Croutton City had 56% possession and five corners, but recorded no shots at all. The possession figure describes where the ball spent time; the shot count rather more firmly describes what the visitors did with it.

No Croutton City players recorded a standout rating of 7.0 or higher.

The match had a clear hinge in the first half. Walther opened the scoring in the 24th minute, one minute after Saliou Sow was booked, and Halilović added a second before the interval. Sougbord then waited until the 73rd minute to extend the lead, with Thomas scoring before Halilović struck again three minutes later. The sequence turned a controlled advantage into a comprehensive one, and left little room for the final quarter-hour to alter the substance of the afternoon.

Croutton City’s 17 dribbles and slightly higher passing accuracy offer signs of activity, but activity never became an attempt on goal. Sougbord, meanwhile, paired a lower share of possession with more tackles and a much greater volume of shots. The final 0-4 result was emphatic and, given the chance totals, not an eccentric accident. Croutton City had the ball more often; Sougbord supplied the part of the match that counts on the scoreboard.
