Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Chaming United scored five from an xG of 4.49, a modest return above the chances’ estimated value, and the 17 shots on target show how consistently they made those chances count. Meldbe Stanley scored once from 1.53 xG, finishing below the estimate despite putting all six of their shots on target. The visitors held 51% possession, won nine corners and completed 14 dribbles, but that territorial activity did not translate into enough attempts: Chaming United had 19 shots and only two corners, yet repeatedly found routes to goal. The numbers point to a clear difference in attacking volume and finishing, rather than a contest decided by who kept the ball.

• No Meldbe Stanley players reached a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The five goals came from four different scorers, with Fortes providing the brace and the assist on the final goal. The sequence after the break settled the shape of the match: Chaming United scored twice in four minutes, Meldbe Stanley answered through Weijie Hong, and Ronald Ford restored the four-goal margin two minutes after the visitors were reduced to ten. The score stayed at 5-1, exactly where the balance of chances and finishing had put it. Meldbe Stanley had plenty of activity around the edges of the contest; Chaming United did the rather more consequential work in front of goal.
