Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Chuld City scored three from 2.53 xG, finishing slightly above the chances the estimate suggests; St Cord City scored twice from 2.88 xG, falling short despite creating the stronger total. The visitors’ 11 shots on target from 12 attempts underline how often they made the goalkeeper work, while Chuld City put eight of 13 efforts on target. The hosts had more of the ball, 54% to 46%, and edged the shot count, but the chance-quality figures point to a match in which possession did not mean control of the most dangerous opportunities. St Cord City made enough openings to expect a better return; Chuld City made its chances count, especially when Norbert Fischer supplied the late winner.

The second half developed at unusual speed: Fischer put Chuld City ahead in the 49th minute, then was booked one minute later. Further cautions arrived in a run from 52' through 60', five bookings in all, with St Cord City collecting three to the hosts’ two. That burst of disciplinary activity did not prevent the visitors from drawing level through Pedro Guzman at 76', assisted by Friedrich Unger (St Cord City). But Chuld City had the final intervention, as Luis Pinto set up Fischer for his second in the 84th minute. The home side’s narrower share of the better chances was enough to turn a game that could easily have leaned the other way.
