Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Pettlees recorded 1.82 xG and scored once, finishing 0.82 below the chance-quality estimate. Harwick Villa produced 3.09 xG and scored four, exceeding their estimate by 0.91. The visitors’ 11 shots on target from 14 attempts gave their attack a clear edge in volume and accuracy; their finishing then added a little extra to an already productive afternoon. Pettlees had six shots on target from nine attempts, but the single goal fell short of what their chances suggested. The early red card to Lindomar Da Silva left the hosts with a difficult task, and the visitors’ two goals just before and after half-time made the contest increasingly one-sided.

• No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher recorded for Pettlees.

The scoreline reflected more than a brief spell of good fortune: Harwick Villa created the greater threat, tested the target more often and converted four times. Pettlees did keep slightly more possession and recorded more corners, but those advantages did not make up for the gap in shots on target or the disruption of playing with ten after the eighth minute. Xinping Boon was the standout, with a goal and two assists; Friedrich Unger, booked early, still supplied the assist for the fourth goal. The final 1-4 leaves little ambiguity about the balance of the match, even if the hosts’ possession figures might prefer a more diplomatic account.
