Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Leighbring scored five from an xG of 3.94, finishing about 1.06 goals above the chance-quality estimate. That is a measure of sharp conversion on top of sustained threat: the hosts recorded 18 shots, with 14 on target, and made their attacking pressure count. Edmoort had an xG of 1.61 but no goals, a sizeable gap between the opportunities represented by its chances and the outcome. Six shots on target from seven attempts indicate that the visitors did test the defence, but accuracy alone did not produce a goal. The possession split was close, 52% to 48%; the decisive difference was what each side made of its attacking moments.

• Edmoort had no standout performers rated 7.0 or higher.

Leighbring’s five goals arrived across both halves, with the score already 3-0 by the 36th minute and two more added after the interval. The spread of scorers mattered: Lindomar Da Silva struck twice, while Paolo Spina, Stuart Mitchell and Khadim Diakhate each added a goal. Colin Young assisted twice despite receiving a yellow card, an afternoon of useful service with one small administrative note attached.

The statistics leave Edmoort with some evidence of attacking effort, but not the return it needed to make the contest close. Leighbring had more of the ball, more shots and more corners, and converted those advantages into a 5-0 result. The visitors’ six shots on target make the clean sheet more than a matter of simply avoiding the ball; the hosts combined defensive resistance with far more decisive finishing at the other end.
