The brain read
Columbus Crew created the better chances — the xG read 0.4–0.9 and the shot count agreed (8–13, 2–3 on target). Columbus Crew's finishing ran hot — 2 from 0.9 xG, 3 of 13 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 0–2 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.
