The brain read
Arouca created the better chances — the xG read 0.4–2.1 and the shot count agreed (10–17, 1–4 on target). Arouca held 71% of the ball. Arouca's finishing let them down — 1 from 2.1 xG despite 4 of 17 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 0–1 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.
