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.

48' Nicolas Viola Goal · scorer +0.8 · assist Gaetano Oristanio +0.3 +1.1
51' Albert Guðmundsson Goal +0.8
69' Gabriele Zappa Goal · scorer +0.9 · assist Andrea Petagna +0.4 +1.3
Cagliari Expected (last two seasons) 1.5Own moments +2.4Opponent moments −1.1Time effect +0.2→ League points won 3
Genoa Expected (last two seasons) 1.2Own moments +0.8Opponent moments −1.7Time effect −0.3→ 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.
