A clean sheet to cap a heavy win

RB Leipzig beat Hamburg 5-0 at Red Bull Arena, scoring in the 17th and 28th minutes and then leading for 73 minutes in all. They had conceded 1.8 goals a game on average over their four matches this season, so a clean sheet stood out.

Three goals in five minutes

Three more goals came between the 72nd and 77th minutes. Antonio Nusa set up Willi Orbán and Christopher Nkunku, and substitute Rômulo made it 5-0. Tidiam Gomis's opener was worth +0.5 FN xPts; the later goals came with the match decided and were worth next to nothing.

Player of the match
Antonio Nusa 9.1Dominant

He scored once, set up two more and completed all three of his dribbles.

Nusa scored in the 28th minute, then created the 72nd and 74th-minute goals, which started Leipzig's late burst. Three key passes underlined his attacking influence.

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.
