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.

3' Nicolás González Goal · scorer +0.3 · assist Lucas Beltrán +0.2 +0.5
21' Alberto Dossena Own goal −0.2
90+4' M'Bala Nzola Goal · assist Rolando Mandragora 0.0
Fiorentina Expected (last two seasons) 2.2Own moments +0.5Opponent moments +0.2Time effect +0.1→ League points won 3
Cagliari Expected (last two seasons) 0.6Own moments −0.2Opponent moments −0.4Time effect 0.0→ League points won 0

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.
