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.

19' Folarin Balogun Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Mohammed Salisu +0.2 +0.7
30' Brice Samba Own goal −0.5
31' Elye Wahi Goal +0.5
77' Wesley Saïd Goal +1.0

Monaco Expected (last two seasons) 1.0Own moments +2.5Opponent moments −1.4Time 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.
