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.

40' Javi Puado Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Edu Expósito +0.3 +1.0
57' Javier Guerra Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Luis Rioja +0.3 +1.0
Valencia Expected (last two seasons) 1.7Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −0.9Time effect −0.8→ League points won 1
Espanyol Expected (last two seasons) 1.0Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −1.2Time effect +0.2→ League points won 1

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.
