Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The Gazzetta chance-quality estimate gave Selwes United 6.2 xG and Minge Rangers 1.13. The actual 10-1 result therefore put the hosts 3.8 goals above their estimate, while the visitors finished just below theirs by 0.13. Selwes United’s 27 shots, including 23 on target, help explain how the pressure became so relentless; the finishing still ran well ahead of the chances’ projected value. Minge Rangers managed five attempts and four on target, with Michel Lemoine converting one, but had too little attacking volume to keep pace. Their 52% possession and better pass accuracy did not translate into control of the most important territory: the space in which chances become goals.

No Minge Rangers players reached a recorded rating of 7.0 or higher.

The margin was not a narrow consequence of one late swing. Selwes United scored four times inside the opening 32 minutes, and although Michel Lemoine pulled one back on the stroke of half-time, Andre Bernard restored the hosts’ momentum two minutes after the restart. The visitors kept the ball more often and completed passes more accurately, but the match’s shape was set by Selwes United’s direct, repeated threat in front of goal. Three more goals after the hour turned a decisive lead into a double-digit finish, with Romulo Soares completing his hat-trick and Poul Mikkelsen closing the scoring in the 90th minute. Ten goals from 6.2 xG is an extraordinary return; the 10-1 scoreline records the day plainly, while the chance estimate suggests just how far the finishing exceeded expectation.
