Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Haver United scored four from an xG of 3.83, a return almost exactly in line with the chances created. Taund Park scored once from 1.04 xG, also close to expectation. The gap was therefore not a story of one side finishing wildly above its chances: Haver United produced 17 shots, with 14 on target, while Taund Park managed four shots and put all four on target. The hosts’ 54% possession and 86% pass accuracy show they could keep the ball and use it neatly, but they did not turn that control into enough attempts. Haver United had less possession and lower pass accuracy, yet their 3.83 xG and four goals tell the more useful tactical story: they made their attacks count by reaching shooting positions far more often.

• No standout performers rated 7.0 or higher for Taund Park.

The early goal gave Haver United a platform, and the two further first-half strikes turned that platform into a substantial lead. Jonathan Davies briefly pulled one back just after the break, assisted by Ziad Mohamed, but Edgar Ramos restored the three-goal margin four minutes later. The second half offered Taund Park a quick reply, not a change of direction.

The six yellow cards—four for Taund Park and two more for Haver United—added a steady undertone of friction to a match whose main imbalance was in the shooting. The teams shared the corners, but not the volume of attempts. Taund Park had the ball more often; Haver United were more direct in the part of football where a pass eventually has to become a shot. A 1-4 scoreline is a clear verdict, and the numbers behind it leave little room for appeal.
