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.

17' Bence Ötvös Own goal −0.6
21' Igor Jesus Goal · scorer +0.2 · assist Ryan Yates +0.1 +0.3
55' Igor Jesus Goal · assist Ibrahim Sangaré 0.0
90' James McAtee Pen goal 0.0
Nottingham Forest Expected (last two seasons) 1.9Own moments +0.3Opponent moments +0.7Time effect +0.1→ League points won 3
Ferencvarosi TC Expected (no record yet, starting estimate) 0.8Own moments −0.6Opponent moments −0.2Time 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.
