Wingde 3 - 1 Harton Stanley

Wingde’s 3.38 xG against one actual goal until the 90th minute points to a side that created enough for a more comfortable afternoon, even if the finishing did not keep pace with the opportunities. Harton Stanley’s 0.56 xG and two attempts suggest their goal was a sharp return from limited attacking work rather than evidence of sustained pressure. The possession split was 50-50, but the shot count was 14-2, with 13 of Wingde’s efforts on target. The ball may have been shared; the chances were not.

The early bookings for Pablo Sanchez and Jose Nuez gave Harton Stanley a disciplined problem to manage before either side had scored, and Charles Hill doubled Wingde’s lead after Carlos Batista supplied the assist. Magi Okamura brought the visitors back within one before half-time, keeping the match alive despite their meagre shot volume. Wingde then had to wait until the 90th minute for Emiliano Torres to make the result secure. The 3-1 scoreline was deserved, though Wingde’s long wait for a third left the door ajar for longer than its chance count suggested.
