Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Sougham scored four from an xG of 4.13, a near-exact return that slightly undershot the chances created. Sandon Albion scored five from 3.53 xG, finishing around 1.47 goals above the estimate and turning a less generous chance profile into the decisive advantage. The figures describe a lively, open contest rather than a match in which one side monopolised the ball: possession was level at 50% each, and both clubs registered 20 shots. Sougham put 14 efforts on target to Sandon Albion’s 10, but the visitors’ greater efficiency made the difference. The equal shot totals and contrasting finishing provide a tidy explanation for how the side with the lower xG still left with all three points.

The late sequence made a close scoreline feel less like a settled contest and more like a document repeatedly returned for amendments. Sougham drew level at 87' through Sergo Meqvabishvili, only for Josef Neumann to complete his hat-trick two minutes later. That final exchange captured the afternoon’s balance: Sougham created enough and kept answering, while Sandon Albion found the final, costly answer. The 4-5 result stands, with Sougham’s higher xG and greater number of shots on target offering little consolation against a visitor who converted the opportunities that mattered most.
