Key numbers

  • Three goals between 78' and 90'
  • Becker: 1 goal, 1 assist, FN Score 8.5
  • Mainz faced 21 shots, avg 9.8

A seven-goal match that kept turning

Mönchengladbach struck first in the 11th minute and Mainz levelled in the 18th. Sheraldo Becker's goal on 45 minutes then sent the visitors in at the break in front. Gladbach drew level again in the 59th minute, and the goals kept coming until the end.

Martel's goal on 78 minutes broke the stalemate

At 2-2, Eric Martel put Mainz back in front in the 78th minute, a goal worth +1.3 FN xPts. Mainz faced 21 shots, against a four-match season average of 9.8, yet still scored four. Danny da Costa added the fourth in the 89th minute.

Player of the match
Sheraldo Becker 8.5Dominant

He led the FN Score with 8.5, with one goal and one assist.

Becker put three of his four shots on target, and that attacking output earned most of his credit. He set up Phillip Tietz's equaliser in the 18th minute, then scored the goal that gave Mainz a half-time lead.

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.
