Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Petham Park scored six from an xG of 3.25, outperforming the chance-quality estimate by 2.75 goals. That is a substantial finishing surplus, though 12 shots on target from 14 attempts show the visitors were not scoring against a torrent of wasteful efforts; they kept making the goalkeeper’s working day relevant. Faing Nord had an xG of 0.26 and only one shot, which was on target. The hosts’ 57% possession and eight corners did not translate into meaningful scoring threat, while Petham Park produced the sharper attack with less of the ball. The contrast is the match in miniature: possession belonged more often to Faing Nord, but the goals belonged entirely to the visitors.

No Faing Nord players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

For Faing Nord, the numbers offered a few misleading comforts: more possession, more corners and far more dribbles. None changed the scoreline, because the single shot did not provide enough of a platform to threaten a recovery. The gap in tackles, 12-6 to Petham Park, also fits a match in which the visitors were more effective at disrupting attacks and turning the ball toward goal.

The timing made the defeat especially steep. Petham Park struck three times between the seventh and 21st minutes, then added three more after the break, including two goals from Michael Brown in the closing stages. Faing Nord kept the ball more often, but possession without chances became a rather ornate way of watching the visitors score. At 6-0, the final margin was not a close reading of the xG estimate; it was a decisive win built on far greater threat and finishing that ran well ahead of expectation.
