AI-written review based on match data · How we make it
Key numbers
- xG per shot: Lille 0.14, PSG 0.08
- Lille led for about 69 minutes; PSG scored twice at 90'
- Giroud assisted both Lille goals
A two-goal lead undone at the death
Lille were two goals clear and, having been ahead for about 69 minutes, looked on course for the win. Then a late double from Paris Saint-Germain, both goals in the 90th minute, turned a home lead into a 2-2 draw. The scores had been level for only about 21 minutes.
PSG had the ball, Lille had the better shots
Paris Saint-Germain held the ball for long spells yet found it hard to hurt Lille. Their shots were worth just 0.08 xG each against Lille's 0.14, and 11 of them came from outside the box, which sits neatly with that low figure. Even so, PSG finished with the slightly higher xG total.
Giroud sat behind both Lille goals
Both Lille goals ran through Olivier Giroud. Giroud's two assists set up Hakon Arnar Haraldsson's opener in the 21st minute and the second from substitute Dilane Bakwa in the 84th. Lille's shots were also concentrated inside the box, which suggests they did more with far less of the ball.
An equaliser that reversed the points
In the 90th minute Vitinha pulled one back from substitute Mika Godts' pass, and Marquinhos then levelled from Vitinha's. The equaliser was worth +1.0 FN xPts, the largest value of the match, because it turned a 2-1 lead into level terms and took away the three points Lille had been heading for.
Player of the match
Vitinha 8.9Dominant
He had five shots (two on target) and a goal and an assist, and completed 105 of 114 passes.
Vitinha scored once and set up another, both in the 90th minute, and added five shots and two key passes to that. His 114 passes, 105 of them accurate, show how much of PSG's build-up ran through him. His goal made it 2-1 and his pass found Marquinhos for the equaliser, which gave him the highest FN Score of the match.

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.
