Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Chrenton Villa recorded 3.32 xG but scored only once, a substantial shortfall that points to a sharp gap between chance quality and finishing. St Darne Park scored five from 4.74 xG, a modest overperformance, and made more of an already productive attacking display. The shot figures underline the contrast: Chrenton Villa put 12 of 15 attempts on target, while St Darne Park managed 18 from 20. So this was not a case of one side failing to create; St Darne Park created more, hit the target more often, and converted with greater regularity. The hosts’ xG suggests the match offered routes back into contention, but the final score records how decisively those openings were outweighed.

No Chrenton Villa players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The scoreline was built in two clear stages: St Darne Park took the lead, saw Chrenton Villa equalise through Per Christiansen, then restored their advantage before half-time. Two goals in four minutes after the break made the challenge steeper, and Shigeo Abu added a fifth late on. With 20 shots and 18 on target, the visitors kept the pressure measurable as well as visible; Chrenton Villa had their own considerable attacking output, but one goal could not keep pace. The six yellow cards were shared evenly, a small administrative consensus in a match whose principal business belonged to St Darne Park.
