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.

31' Luis Rioja Pen miss −0.7
32' Gorka Guruzeta Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist Nico Williams +0.2 +0.8

Athletic Club Expected (last two seasons) 2.1Own moments +1.1Opponent moments +0.7Time effect −0.9→ League points won 3
Alaves Expected (last two seasons) 0.7Own moments −0.7Opponent moments −0.8Time effect +0.8→ 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.
