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.

4' Roman Yaremchuk Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist José Luis Gayà +0.2 +0.8
27' Pepelu Pen goal +0.5

Villarreal Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments 0.0Opponent moments −1.2Time effect −0.2→ 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.
