The brain read
Feyenoord created the better chances — the xG read 0.7–1.1 and the shot count agreed (12–11, 2–6 on target). NEC Nijmegen held 62% of the ball. Feyenoord's finishing ran hot — 3 from 1.1 xG, 6 of 11 shots on target (a finishing read inferred from shots on target and goals vs xG — not measured shot placement). On the balance of chances, the 1–3 reads fair.
A second opinion written by rule from the numbers on this page — where the shot picture and the xG disagree, it says so rather than picking a winner. Backward-looking only; it claims nothing about any future result.
