Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Oaksburpe Wanderers scored three goals from 1.56 xG, an overperformance of 1.44, while Yeobury Town scored once from 2.12 xG, underperforming by 1.12. The visitors had the larger estimated chance total and more shots on target, 8-6, but the scoreline rewarded Oaksburpe’s finishing rather than the visitors’ volume. That contrast gives the result its shape: Yeobury Town found routes to threaten, yet Oaksburpe Wanderers converted at a far higher rate and added a late third to restore a two-goal margin.

The match was close in possession, 51 per cent to 49, but less even in the details of how each side tried to make use of it. Oaksburpe Wanderers recorded 10 dribbles to Yeobury’s two, suggesting the hosts were more willing to carry the ball past opponents, while the visitors made 13 tackles to the hosts’ 12. The foul count ran the other way, with Oaksburpe committing 13 and Yeobury nine; five yellow cards in total gave the contest a mildly officious undertone, though neither side had a player sent off. Lemoine’s two goals in nine minutes supplied the crucial cushion, and Lewis’s goal at 82 minutes briefly made the final stretch more interesting. Jeong’s strike at 90 minutes ensured that interest did not become a comeback.

• No Yeobury Town players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.
