The brain read

SC Braga created the better chances — the xG read 0.5–1.7 and the shot count agreed (8–20, 4–2 on target). SC Braga got into the box far more often (12 shots inside it to 4) and SC Braga held 71% of the ball. SC Braga's finishing let them down — 0 from 1.7 xG despite 2 of 20 shots on target (a finishing read inferred from shots on target and goals vs xG — not measured shot placement). The 1–0 flatters Nacional — on chances created, SC Braga shaded it.

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.
