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.

14' Federico Valverde Goal · scorer +0.3 · assist Luka Modrić +0.2 +0.5
73' Vinícius Júnior Goal · assist Federico Valverde +0.2
Real Madrid Expected (last two seasons) 2.3Own moments +0.7Opponent moments 0.0Time effect 0.0→ League points won 3
Villarreal Expected (last two seasons) 0.5Own moments 0.0Opponent moments −0.5Time 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.
