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.

22' Timothy Weah Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Mason Greenwood +0.2 +0.7
29' Kylian Mbappé Pen goal +0.8
72' Daniel Carvajal Red card −0.3

Real Madrid Expected (last two seasons) 2.2Own moments +1.9Opponent moments −0.7Time effect −0.4→ League points won 3
Marseille Expected (last two seasons) 0.6Own moments +0.7Opponent moments −1.3Time 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.
