Olympiakos recover from an early setback

Kajetan Szmyt put Jagiellonia ahead in the 20th minute, but Armando González levelled in the 43rd and Olympiakos won 2-1. The hosts had 25 shots to the visitors' four, and their xG was 2.53 to 0.52. Jagiellonia, though, put three of their four efforts on target.

A late goal from the bench

Substitute Roman Yaremchuk scored the winner in the 84th minute from a Remo Freuler assist, worth +1.6 FN xPts, the largest value of the night. Sławomir Abramowicz made four saves for Jagiellonia, but Olympiakos kept up the pressure with 13 corners and were rewarded late on.

Player of the match
Gelson Martins 7.8Strong

Four key passes, 10 duels won out of 20 and three dribbles completed from six earned him the top FN Score.

Gelson Martins drew five fouls and kept testing Jagiellonia's back line. That pressure underpinned both the equaliser in the 43rd minute and the winner in the 84th.

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.
