Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Holds Stall Villa scored eight from 2.68 xG, an extraordinary overperformance of 5.32 goals against the chance-quality estimate. Ten of their 11 shots were on target, and that accuracy helps explain how a modest shot count became such a large return, though the finishing still ran far beyond what the xG figure would usually suggest. Cass Rock United finished with 0.11 xG and no shots on target, so their 59% possession and eight corners did not translate into a serious test. The contrast was stark: the visitors had more of the ball and more corners, while the hosts were much more direct in front of goal and ruthless with the chances they created.

• Cass Rock United: No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

The early goals gave Holds Stall Villa control of the contest before the half-hour, and Ingo Berndt’s pair before the break made the task still harder for Cass Rock United. His later goals, with Ian Ellis also on the scoresheet, extended the margin after the interval. The visitors kept the possession advantage and won more corners, but could not turn either measure into a shot on target. For Holds Stall Villa, eight goals and a clean sheet made for a commanding afternoon; for Cass Rock United, the ball was plentiful, while the useful conclusions were not.
