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.

56' Arouna Sangante Red card −0.3
85' Lucas Stassin Goal +1.7
90' Marcos Fernández Goal +1.0
Espanyol Expected (last two seasons) 1.5Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −0.8Time effect −0.7→ League points won 1
Sevilla Expected (last two seasons) 1.3Own moments +1.4Opponent moments −1.9Time effect +0.2→ League points won 1

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.
