Senou Coulibaly 8.4Dominant

The defender scored in the 84th minute and added three interceptions and two tackles.

Coulibaly protected the back line with his interceptions and tackles, then made it 3-0 in the 84th minute. Few defenders contribute at both ends in one match, and it fitted a clean sheet away from home.

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. The value next to a team code is what the same moment did to the other side's expected points; the decisive moment is the one with the largest combined change for both teams.

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.
