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.

32' Thilo Kehrer Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Lamine Camara +0.2 +0.7
54' Mousa Al-Taamari Goal +0.7
82' Mousa Al-Taamari Goal · scorer +0.9 · assist Arnaud Nordin +0.4 +1.3

Monaco Expected (last two seasons) 1.8Own moments +0.7Opponent moments −1.8Time effect −0.7→ 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.
