Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate gave East Mar United 0.71 xG and Yeomyalth End 4.59. The 0-5 scoreline therefore sat close to the visitors’ expected return, while the hosts’ failure to score was consistent with creating little: East Mar United managed four shots, two on target. Yeomyalth End put 17 of 20 shots on target and converted five, a strong return from a large volume of dangerous attempts rather than a scoreline built on improbable finishing. Possession was nearly even at 49%-51%, but the shot count makes clear that having the ball for a similar share of the match did not mean the sides made equal use of it.

The first-half sequence was decisive. Jenkins struck in the 6th and 11th minutes, then completed his hat-trick in the 31st; the early damage left East Mar United with a substantial task before the break. A fourth goal from Jenkins in the 70th minute and Walther’s finish ten minutes later carried the margin to five. The hosts won more corners, 10 to five, but that advantage did not translate into enough shots to trouble the visitors’ lead. Four yellow cards for East Mar United and three for Yeomyalth End added a busy disciplinary line to a match whose main statistic remained the five goals.

No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher were recorded for East Mar United.
