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.

35' Paul Nebel Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist Nadiem Amiri +0.3 +0.9
49' Patrik Schick Pen goal +0.9
54' Patrik Schick Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist Aleix García +0.3 +0.9

FSV Mainz 05 Expected (last two seasons) 0.9Own moments +1.7Opponent moments −1.7Time effect +0.1→ League points won 1
Bayer Leverkusen Expected (last two seasons) 1.9Own moments +1.8Opponent moments −2.0Time effect −0.7→ 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.
