Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Mexter Stanley scored four from an xG of 3.48, a modest over-performance that fits a side which repeatedly turned promising chances into goals. Woodster United scored once against an xG of 1.47, finishing below its chance estimate. The visitors’ 52% possession, 18 dribbles and seven corners suggest they found ways to advance and apply pressure, but their seven shots brought only five on target. In contrast, Mexter Stanley put 11 of 18 attempts on target and made its attacking volume count. The difference was not simply who had the ball, but who made more of the moments that followed.

• Mexter Stanley
• Hector Castro (7.0) - Scored the opener, assisted Manuel Semedo’s late goal and also received a yellow card.
• Woodster United
• No standout performers rated 7.0 or above were recorded.

The opening quarter-hour offered little chance for either side to settle. Hector Castro put Mexter Stanley ahead after two minutes; Eric Moreau levelled for Woodster United seven minutes later, and Jose Marin restored the hosts’ advantage at 16'. Two bookings arrived in the 14th minute, one for each side, lending the early contest a brisk administrative streak. After the second goal, Mexter Stanley kept the lead and eventually widened it, with Lindomar Da Silva scoring on the hour and Manuel Semedo adding the fourth six minutes from time.

The result was a clear 4-1 win, built on a sharper return from the chances Mexter Stanley created rather than dominance of possession. Woodster United completed more passes accurately, dribbled more often and won more corners, yet Mexter Stanley’s 18 shots and 11 on target gave its attack the greater weight. The late goal settled the margin, while the earlier two-goal response after the equaliser had already put the match on a different track. For Woodster United, the numbers show some attacking activity, but not enough finishing to keep pace with a side that found the net four times.
