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.

36' Joško Gvardiol Goal +0.7
88' Bruno Fernandes Pen goal +0.9
90' Amad Diallo Goal · scorer +1.3 · assist Lisandro Martínez +0.5 +1.8
Manchester City Expected (last two seasons) 2.2Own moments +0.7Opponent moments −2.7Time effect −0.2→ League points won 0
Manchester United Expected (last two seasons) 0.6Own moments +2.7Opponent moments −0.5Time effect +0.2→ 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.
