Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Strehipth Palace scored eight from a Gazzetta chance-quality estimate of 4.84 xG, an over-performance of 3.16 goals. That is a substantial return above the chances’ estimated quality, though 16 shots on target from 24 attempts points to sustained threat rather than a single improbable break. Cham Rangers recorded 0.11 xG and no shots on target, finishing without a goal in a match where their six corners did not translate into a recorded effort on target. The 49–51 possession split was close; the shots, and ultimately the finishing, were not.

Cham Rangers No players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

Strehipth Palace

• Piero Volpe (9.4) - Scored three and assisted two, directly shaping five of the eight goals.
• Ivanildo Lima (7.3) - Scored once and assisted Carlos Mendes.
• Carlos Mendes (7.3) - Added a goal and an assist, including the pass for Piero Volpe’s second.
• Mahmoud Khalifa (7.3) - Scored and assisted, contributing at both ends of the visitors’ attack.

The match’s numbers make the scale of the result plain without requiring a theory of possession: Cham Rangers had slightly less of the ball, but managed one shot and none on target, while Strehipth Palace repeatedly tested the goal and converted at a rate above their xG. The visitors’ four yellow cards came alongside their attacking control; Cham Rangers had six corners and more recorded dribbles, but neither figure brought a goal. Eight goals were scored by one side, none by the other, and the final score accurately reflected where the afternoon’s decisive actions took place.
