Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Abinde Rovers scored five from an xG of 5.53, a slight underperformance against the quality of the chances created, though five goals is not usually considered a complaint. Alton Park finished without a goal despite an xG of 1.51, leaving them short of what their opportunities suggested they might produce. The shot count gives the clearest account of the difference: Abinde Rovers had 25 attempts, 20 on target, while Alton Park managed six, all on target. The visitors held more possession and passed with greater accuracy, but the hosts made their attacks more productive; possession, on this occasion, was an imperfect substitute for getting shots away.

The scoreline was already 4-0 at half-time, with Kenneth Clayton accounting for three of those goals in a 15-minute stretch. Alton Park did not lack possession or accuracy in their passing, but those advantages brought only six attempts, against a home side that put most of its 25 shots on target. Abinde Rovers added one more late through Antonio Da Costa, completing a performance in which the hosts were more direct where it mattered and Alton Park never found a way to turn control of the ball into a response.
