Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Stanstrad City’s 5.63 xG made their five goals a close match for the quality of chances they created: they scored 0.63 fewer than the estimate, which is hardly a wasteful return. Snolth’s 0.56 xG yielded one goal, a modest over-performance, and Pedro Tavares’s finish gave the visitors something tangible from their limited attacking moments. The shot count tells the broader story: Stanstrad City had 26 attempts, with 20 on target, while Snolth managed two shots and put both on target. Possession was relatively close at 52% to 48%, but possession alone does not explain a match in which one side kept producing dangerous attempts and the other had little room to build a reply. Five corners apiece offered a rare statistical symmetry; the goals did not follow its lead.
- No Snolth players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.
Stanstrad City had established a three-goal lead by half-time and then extended it after the break, with Roy Lee scoring in the 71st and 86th minutes. Snolth briefly interrupted that progression through Pedro Tavares in the 76th, but the response did not change the shape of the contest. With the final score 5 - 1, Stanstrad City’s attacking volume was not merely decorative; it produced the result the chance count suggested, while Snolth’s two shots left little time for a larger argument.
