Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate gave Beldenhen 4.85 xG and Rowicham Athletic 0.51. Against those figures, Beldenhen scored 9, outperforming its estimate by 4.15 goals; Rowicham Athletic scored none, falling short by 0.51. That is substantial finishing over-performance, but not a scoreline conjured from a stray shot or two: Beldenhen put 18 of 21 attempts on target, while Rowicham Athletic managed only two shots, both on target. The hosts’ 50% possession suggests they did not need to monopolise the ball to dominate the danger. Their finishing made the difference unusually emphatic, while the visitors’ 12 corners offered a less productive route into the match.

• No Rowicham Athletic players reached a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The final 9-0 scoreline was settled well before the last whistle, with Beldenhen scoring five times before half-time and adding four more after the break. The match statistics contain an odd little counterpoint: Rowicham Athletic won twice as many corners and made twice as many tackles, yet finished without a goal. Those efforts did not translate into enough shots to trouble the hosts; Beldenhen instead kept converting its attacking pressure into goals. For Rowicham Athletic, the two shots on target and 0.51 xG record a limited threat; for Beldenhen, the nine goals leave little doubt about the outcome.
