Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: The 4-1 scoreline sits close to the chance-quality estimate: Thamington County produced 4.08 xG and scored four, while Easet Mare managed 0.88 xG and scored once. That is little evidence of either side wildly outperforming its chances; the result chiefly reflects the difference in volume and quality of opportunity. Thamington County had 18 shots, 15 on target, against four shots and three on target for Easet Mare. Possession was comparatively even at 53%-47%, but the hosts made more of their time on the ball, while the visitors’ 15 dribbles did not translate into a sustained supply of dangerous attempts. The quick reply from Easet Mare made the match briefly feel more open, but Thamington County restored its lead before the interval and added twice soon after it. The numbers describe a side that converted its territorial and shooting advantage into a clear win, rather than a narrow escape.

• No Easet Mare players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The decisive spell came in a sequence that offered Easet Mare very little time to settle after its equaliser. Eliseu Gomes put Thamington County ahead; Norbert Fischer, assisted by Luis Pinto, replied a minute later. Then Kyungsoo Chae restored the hosts’ advantage in the 44th minute, and Luciano Pitti and Richard Stone scored after the break. Four goals from the home side, one from the visitors: the final score was 4-1, and the event list agrees without requiring a committee meeting.

The broader figures underline how the match tilted. Both sides completed passes at 80%, and Easet Mare even recorded more dribbles, 15 to 12; neatness and individual running, however, are not the same thing as repeated shots on target. Thamington County had five corners to three, and the hosts’ 15 efforts on target compared with three for the visitors. The lone listed card came late, when Khadim Diakhate was booked in the 89th minute; it did not alter a contest already settled by the four-goal home tally. Thamington County were not simply more comfortable with the ball: they gave their attacks a much sharper ending.
