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.

25' Domenico Berardi Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Kristian Thorstvedt +0.3 +1.0
45' Antonio Caracciolo Own goal −0.3
51' Michel Aebischer Goal · assist Rafiu Durosinmi +0.2
58' Ismael Koné Goal · scorer +0.3 · assist Nemanja Matić +0.1 +0.4
Pisa Expected (last two seasons) 1.2Own moments −0.1Opponent moments −1.0Time effect −0.1→ League points won 0
Sassuolo Expected (last two seasons) 1.5Own moments +1.4Opponent moments 0.0Time effect +0.1→ League points won 3

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.
