Possession that never reached the goal
Deportivo had more of the ball, 53 per cent, yet managed only four shots, well below their average of 8.6 across five matches this season. An xG of 0.14 tells the same story: plenty of passing, very little danger.
One goal was enough for Sevilla
Miguel Sierra's goal in the 52nd minute was the only one of the match, and it was worth +1.0 FN xPts. Angeliño was sent off in the 59th minute, and Deportivo spent the remaining 31 minutes chasing the game. Sevilla moved from sixth to third on 13 points.

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.
