Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Markby scored five from 3.79 xG, finishing about 1.21 goals above the chance-quality estimate. That is a notable return, though not an inexplicable one: 13 of their 18 shots were on target, and the second-half goals arrived in a concentrated spell that turned control into separation. Ston Rednitne managed 0.61 xG from three shots, with two on target, but could not make that limited threat count. The underlying figures point to a match in which Markby created far more and converted especially well, while the visitors had too few opportunities to alter the course of the afternoon.

The match’s decisive stretch began just after the interval. Colin Henderson made it 2-0 in the 49th minute; three minutes later, Luis Sellanes finished a move assisted by Lindomar Da Silva. Luca Colombo added another in the 71st, and Henderson completed his brace in the 84th. The cards gave the afternoon its small dose of administrative paperwork, but the football itself was largely a matter of Markby pressing the advantage. The visitors recorded no corners and took ten fouls, while the hosts’ 56 per cent possession was matched by a striking difference in shots: 18 to three.

• No Ston Rednitne players reached a rating of 7.0 or higher.
