Woter City’s attacking performance was underpinned by their impressive xG of 4.53, a figure that suggests they could have scored even more than the five they managed. Their goal-scoring was spread across multiple players, with Luis Pinto and Xinping Boon leading the charge. Pinto’s brace, including a well-placed finish in the 66th minute, showcased his sharp instincts, while Boon’s goal and assist demonstrated his creative influence. Despite the high shot volume—21 attempts with 16 on target—their finishing was precise, and their tactical discipline was evident in their ability to carve open the home side’s defence repeatedly. Conversely, Ston-Thall’s 0.86 xG reflected their limited threat, with only a handful of shots and a solitary effort on target, highlighting their inability to capitalize on the few chances they created.
The match was also marred by disciplinary issues, with three yellow cards handed out—two to Ston-Thall and one to Woter City—and no dismissals. The hosts’ Jorge Alvez and Phillip Lewis received cautions, but their team’s inability to respond to the visitors’ relentless pressure was evident in the final scoreline. Woter City’s defensive resilience was demonstrated by their 14 tackles and just seven saves needed, a testament to their control of the game. The visitors’ high pressing and quick transitions kept the home side on the back foot throughout, and their goal tally could have been even more substantial had they been more clinical in front of goal. The result leaves Woter City with a well-earned victory, while Ston-Thall must reflect on their defensive lapses and lack of attacking potency.
No players from Ston-Thall reached a rating of 7.0+.
