Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Perwick Wanderers’ 3.69 xG and four goals tell a story of strong chance creation with finishing just above the estimate; Pording County’s single goal from 0.56 xG was a more notable return from limited opportunity. The visitors took one of their two shots on target, but could not build on the equaliser. Perwick, by contrast, had 13 of 17 attempts on target and held 59% possession, keeping the attack supplied rather than relying on one bright spell. The two-goal burst either side of half-time restored their lead, and the later goals reflected the difference between a side able to sustain pressure and one largely restricted to defending it.

• No Pording County players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The scoreline settled at 4-1, with the hosts’ control most visible in the volume and accuracy of their attempts. Pording County won more corners and made more tackles, but those figures did not translate into sustained danger: two shots across the match left little room for a comeback once Perwick moved clear. The visitors did find a response after the opening goal, and their equaliser briefly made the contest more balanced than the final numbers suggest. Perwick’s reply just before the interval changed that balance again. After the break, Misael Acosta and Cheikh Diouf supplied the final pair, turning a productive win into a clear one. For Pording County, the effort was there in the defensive work; the chances, less so.
