Le Havre 1-2 Brest: Doumbia's brace outweighs 18 shots

Key numbers

  • 18 shots, just four on target for Le Havre
  • Brest led for 78 of 90 minutes
  • 12' penalty worth +0.8 FN xPts

Plenty of shots, only one goal

Le Havre had 18 shots but lost 2-1. Only 22% of them were on target, against 47% for Brest. Lionel Mpasi Nzau made eight saves, but he could not stop both goals.

An early penalty set the course

Kamory Doumbia's penalty in the 12th minute was worth +0.8 FN xPts, the most of any moment. Le Havre were reduced to ten men when Junior Mwanga was sent off in first-half stoppage time, and Doumbia added a second in the 51st minute from a Mama Baldé assist. Rayan Fofana pulled one back from the spot in the 79th minute, but Brest led for 78 minutes.

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.

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.
