2.2 xG vs 1.5

How does this system work?

We have two goals with 100% chances, then another miss by Lewandowski.

Bayern's only dangerous chances are Kane's goal.
Bayern had several chances in the box, they all blasted them into nowhere.

Terrible offense aside from Kane.

Madrid would definitely have scored more.

Your mom failed you, you need lots of therapy.
Ask your therapist what "projecting" word means, because that's what you are doing rn.

No, you probably know what that word means. You sound like another pseudo-intellectual lame guy so you probably know many words. Sadly, cant operate them properly to create adequate perception on reality around you, due to your mental disorder and just-alittlebit-above average IQ

Good to see you lads have sorted it out, Zeni and Grande, you both support the same team and are good posters. Better to get on, especially after a night like tonight. :cheers:

What other big moments did Bayern have?

We have 2 big chances with goals from Raphinha and Lewandowski. Lewandowski had another big chance after Yamal's pass. Bayern's only one bigg moment - which ended with their goal. So why the hell is xG 2.2 VS 1.5?

I feel like xG is useless stat when we are talking about one game. Maybe on a whole season scale xG can say something attention worthy. In terms of "which team created more dangerous situations" in specifically one game simple eye test is a better measure tool

Yes you're spot on there, great point - xG is a longer-term stat, not to be taken too seriously in isolated games. It can deviate a lot for a team game to game but will regress to the mean over a period of time.

Eye test is definitely better. For example that amazing cross (was it Lamine?) to Lewa that lewa couldn't get on the end of. That doesn't even count as a shot whereas a trickler from 30 yards does. It was a great chance but I bet it didn't register highly on xG.

xG has its uses but it is flawed too. Simply put, any human activity with so much movement, variables and situations can never be fully accounted for with stats - you need quantitative and qualitative data. The eye test still reigns supreme.
