  • Efficiency shift: The efficiency shift remained in line with the recorded metrics across both sides.

  • xG expectations: xG expectations could not be evaluated because both home and away xG fields returned null.

CONCLUSION

The 1-2 result confirmed Jablonec progression despite lower possession and the absence of xG data limited deeper statistical comparison. Rīgas FS created the majority of territorial control yet the red card altered the balance and contributed to the outcome matching the halftime scoreline. Market alignment held with only minimal deviation recorded while efficiency stayed consistent with prior indicators. The knockout format and aggregate deficit entering the leg shaped the context for both teams tactical approach. Second half adjustments centered on the red card event without further quantitative distortion metrics available. Overall the data set presents a factual account of possession split red card occurrence and result alignment without reliance on unavailable xG measures.
