Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Wing Sale scored nine from an xG of 5, a four-goal return above the chance-quality estimate. That is substantial overperformance, though 19 shots on target from 21 attempts shows this was not simply a case of a few speculative efforts finding improbable destinations. Selinfield recorded 0.36 xG and no goals, with only two shots and one on target. Possession was nearly even, but the gulf in attempts and shots on target points to the more important distinction: Wing Sale repeatedly made its possession dangerous, while Selinfield rarely turned the ball into a threat.

• No Selinfield players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The final score was 9-0, and the statistics explain how a match with almost level possession became so one-sided. Selinfield edged possession and completed a slightly higher number of dribbles, but Wing Sale produced 19 shots on target to Selinfield’s one. Tackles were level, too: the difference was not in how often the sides competed for the ball, but in what Wing Sale did once it had chances to attack.

The nine goals arrived across the match, with Simeonov scoring twice in the final stages to finish a five-goal haul. Selinfield kept the ball marginally more often, but its two shots did not provide enough pressure to change the shape of the afternoon. Wing Sale’s finishing ran well ahead of its xG, while the volume and accuracy of its attempts made the result a convincing reflection of its attacking superiority. The scoreline was emphatic; the match statistics leave little room for a quieter interpretation.
