Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate put Wigh Rovers at 3.95 xG and Vendsham at 0.01. Seven goals from 3.95 xG is substantial over-performance: the hosts converted chances at a rate well beyond the quality estimate, with 14 of their 18 shots on target. That finishing made the scoreline emphatic, though the underlying chance profile was already strongly in their favour. Vendsham had no shots, so the near-zero xG reflects a match in which their possession did not become a meaningful scoring threat. They held 52% of the ball, but control of the ball and control of the match proved to be separate administrative categories.

No Vendsham player reached a recorded rating of 7.0 or higher.

The scoreline was settled early, but Wigh Rovers kept adding to it: three goals before the break, then four more after half-time. Their 48% possession did not limit their attacking output, while their 16 tackles and eight corners point to a side able to win the ball and keep applying pressure. Vendsham completed the match with the same 86% pass accuracy as the hosts and attempted more dribbles, but neither measure produced a shot. The final 7-0 was not a close contest disguised by finishing; it was a dominant result, made still more striking by the gap between Wigh Rovers’ chance estimate and their actual return.
