Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Kest Caste scored eight from an xG of 5.25, beating the chance-quality estimate by 2.75 goals. That is substantial over-performance, though 20 shots on target from 22 attempts made the scoreline less a statistical accident than a sustained siege with unusually decisive finishing. Muckell Rangers recorded 0.01 xG and no shots, finishing 0-8: the estimate says their attacking threat was almost, but not quite, measurable. With 55% possession, Kest Caste controlled more of the ball and turned that control into repeated attempts; Muckell Rangers had no shot to offer in reply.

The opening burst gave Kest Caste room to play with purpose rather than urgency. Johnstone struck twice in the first 12 minutes, with Jack Bell assisting both, and Bailey added the second goal in between. Benjamin Williams made it four before half-time, and the later goals kept arriving at intervals that gave the hosts little chance to reset. Muckell Rangers did manage eight tackles and kept possession for 45% of the match, but neither figure could compensate for the absence of a shot. The three yellow cards came as the score grew, a modest record of a difficult afternoon rather than a meaningful change in its direction.
