Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Rastlen United scored twice from 0.91 xG, finishing 1.09 goals above the chance-quality estimate. Berthalvis Town scored six from 4.19 xG, an overperformance of 1.81. The visitors had 19 shots and put 15 on target, compared with four shots and three on target for Rastlen United; the difference was not merely a matter of taking chances, but of creating far more opportunities to take. Possession was fairly even at 48–52%, so this was no simple story of one side keeping the ball and the other watching. Rastlen United recorded more dribbles, 14 to seven, but Berthalvis Town’s much higher shot count and pass accuracy gave its attacks a more substantial end product. Both sides outscored their xG, with the visitors doing so while also building the far larger chance total.

The early exchanges offered Rastlen United a reason to believe the match might stay within reach: Seungwoo Jeong scored after three minutes, and Allan Carroll made it 2–2 after Enver Milinković had struck twice for the visitors. But Berthalvis Town restored its lead before the break through Miguel Graça, then extended it with two goals from Helmut Jung and another goal assisted by Wayne Wood. The ledger does not name the scorer of the 59th-minute goal; the scoreboard, less interested in paperwork, counted it all the same.

The final 2–6 score reflects both the visitors’ greater attacking output and their finishing beyond the expected-goals estimate. Rastlen United were not short of effort on the ball, as the dribble count suggests, but four shots left little room to recover once Berthalvis Town kept finding the target. The teams had the same number of tackles, while the visitors committed more fouls and collected the match’s only yellow card. None of that altered the central arithmetic: Rastlen United found the net twice, Berthalvis Town found it six times, and a near-even share of possession proved no substitute for an evening spent putting the ball on target.
