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.

89' Viktor Gyökeres Goal · scorer +1.3 · assist Piero Hincapié +0.5 +1.8
90' Max Dowman Goal · assist Gabriel Martinelli +0.1
Arsenal Expected (last two seasons) 2.1Own moments +1.9Opponent moments 0.0Time effect −1.0→ League points won 3
Everton Expected (last two seasons) 0.7Own moments 0.0Opponent moments −0.9Time effect +0.2→ 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.
