Ferencvarosi TC won 3-1 at Celtic Park despite seeing far less of the ball. Celtic had 63% of possession, yet the visitors put six shots on target to the home side's four, and that edge in accuracy told in the end.

Two quick goals after the equaliser

Mika Baur's equaliser in the 44th minute lasted barely a minute. Kristoffer Zachariassen restored the lead in first-half stoppage time, a goal worth +1.0 FN xPts, and D. Arzani made it 3-1 in the 47th minute. Dele set up both.

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.
