Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Ivyburn’s 3.68 xG against three goals points to a modest underperformance, while Soury’s three goals from 1.8 xG represent a much sharper return than their chances would usually suggest. That gap fits the basic shape of the numbers: Ivyburn had 17 shots, with 13 on target, while Soury managed seven attempts and put all seven on target. Ivyburn had more of the ball, though only by 51% to 49%, and built the greater volume of attacking threat; Soury made their fewer opportunities count with unusual consistency. The result therefore reflects both sides of the contest: Ivyburn’s repeated pressure and Soury’s ruthless finishing, with neither ultimately able to keep the other at arm’s length.

• Soury had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

The late equaliser gave Ivyburn a point after a match in which they had the greater chance volume, but the route there was hardly comfortable: Soury led three times in the scoring sequence and kept converting the chances they found. Ivyburn’s two yellow cards arrived before the break, in a first half that included all three Soury goals and Willi Schneider’s response. After the interval, Nilson Pires scored once to narrow the gap and again in the 86th minute to complete the recovery.

The 3 - 3 score leaves the sides level on the day, though not in approach. Ivyburn’s 16 dribbles to Soury’s five suggest the visitors did more of their attacking work by carrying the ball, while Ivyburn’s 17 shots show how often they tested Soury’s defence. The numbers describe a draw with an imbalance in opportunity, not a quiet afternoon: Ivyburn created more, Soury finished with greater efficiency, and the final point each was the tidy administrative outcome of a rather untidy football match.
