FN xPts — what each moment was worth

How much each moment changed that team's expected points (win 3, draw 1). A goal's value is credited 70% to the scorer and 30% to the assist.

7' Hee-Chan Hwang Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Pedro Neto +0.2 +0.7
55' Cody Gakpo Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Mohamed Salah +0.3 +1.0
85' Andrew Robertson Goal · scorer +1.1 · assist Mohamed Salah +0.5 +1.6

Liverpool Expected (last two seasons) 1.9Own moments +2.6Opponent moments −0.6Time effect −0.9→ League points won 3

Expected points don't add up to a fixed total (a draw is 1 + 1), so an opponent's moment isn't simply the mirror of your loss. "Time effect" is the change as the clock runs down on a lead or a chase, and isn't credited to any player.
