High xG doesn't = a goal either. Expand That is the only thing you've got right so far.

Expand I watch games, think about them a bit and talk about them, I don't then spend hours working on/creating spreadsheets extrapolating numbers to reflect the game I watched, I wonder which approach is actually worthy of mockery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 14690 Posted November 24, 2022 Author Share Posted November 24, 2022 I’m xG agnostic tbh but teams have won entire trophies off the back of having fuck all in the way of chances.

Expand Cameroon created one or two decent chances (1 in each half) and small poor chances, whereas Switzerland created 4-5 good chances (1 in first and 3-4 in the second). So, I'm not sure this is the gotcha you think it is? Even your initial post doesn't make a whole heap of sense. "Wow Cameroon creating some serious xG here" No, they weren't. Last round of games in the PL, the average xG for the winning side was 2.21, average for the losing side 1.08. "sucker punch incoming" Is it a sucker punch when the puncher has made better chances than the punchee? It's fine though, I'll drop this now and let you luddites labour away in your ignorance.
