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.

56' Federico Viñas Goal · scorer +0.8 · assist Ilyas Chaira +0.4 +1.2
69' Lucas Boyé Goal +1.0
75' Federico Viñas Red card −0.2

Oviedo Expected (last two seasons) 0.9Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −1.3Time effect +0.4→ 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.
