Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Melston United scored 11 from an xG of 4.71, an overperformance of 6.29 goals; Peretfore scored none from 0.11 xG. The estimate suggests the hosts converted chances at an extraordinary rate, well beyond what the quality of the opportunities alone would usually predict. Their 21 shots, with 17 on target, show sustained attacking pressure, while the final score records a finishing performance that went well past even that strong volume. Peretfore managed one shot and no effort on target, leaving little in the way of a response. The almost level possession figures make the contrast sharper: control of the ball was shared, but control of the goalmouth emphatically was not.

• No Peretfore players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The early goals set the shape of the afternoon: Serge Bertrand struck in the sixth minute, scored again in the 18th, and Melston United had four on the board by the 23rd. David Henderson then scored either side of half-time, with Hama Abe, Ibrahim Perić and Šaban Milanović also on the scoresheet before the first interval. Peretfore received two yellow cards in the opening 22 minutes, but the cards were not the main obstacle; the hosts were already building a lead at a pace that left the visitors with little room to reset.

The second half offered no reprieve. David Henderson completed his third goal in the 65th minute, then Manuel Garrido scored twice in the final eleven minutes, with Ibrahim Perić also finding the net. The margin is too wide to describe as a close contest, and the numbers explain why: Melston United put 17 of 21 shots on target, while Peretfore did not test the goalkeeper at all. Even allowing for the gulf between actual goals and xG, the hosts combined volume, accuracy and ruthless finishing into a performance that left the scoreboard doing most of the talking.
