Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Lees Park managed 0.26 xG and one shot, which was on target; Diston Stanley produced 5.7 xG from 25 attempts, 21 of them on target. The final score of 0 - 10 means Diston Stanley scored 4.3 goals more than its xG estimate, a substantial overperformance on top of a large advantage in chances created. The visitors’ ten goals did not come from an enormous volume of low-quality efforts: their shot total and xG point instead to repeated access to dangerous positions, followed by finishing that ran well beyond the model’s expectation. Lees Park, meanwhile, had little attacking output to sustain pressure or change the pattern. Possession was relatively close, but the difference in shots suggests that keeping the ball for a similar share of the match did not translate into comparable threat.

The authoritative ledger contains no player ratings, so no 7.0+ selections can be verified.

For Lees Park, the figures offer a stark account of the afternoon: one shot, no corners and no goals, despite possession not being far from even. For Diston Stanley, the ten-goal return was built on a steady supply of attempts and a front line that converted at a remarkable rate. Gningue and Aleksandrov supplied seven goals between them, with assists shared across several teammates; this was a collective attack as well as a prolific pair. The cards were scattered through the match, but neither side received a red, and the fouls were nearly level. The final score was 0 - 10, a result whose scale is difficult to soften: Diston Stanley dominated the decisive work in both boxes, while Lees Park had almost no route back into the contest.
