Small sample: one match proves nothing.How we judge this
FotMob referee figures are a snapshot captured when the match was fetched, not a historical record frozen at kick-off. “Fewer”, “about usual”, and “more” use an 80% Poisson band: expected count ± 1.28 × √expected. The whistle test compares match fouls with the referee average; the pocket test scales the referee's yellow-card rate to this match's foul count.

- Bengaluru FC 47% possession, 419 passes (343 accurate); Chennaiyin FC 53% possession, 458 passes (387 accurate) – Bengaluru’s 10 shots (5 on target) produced 2 goals while Chennaiyin’s 20 shots (11 on target) yielded none.
- Expected goals (xG) show the quality of chances, not a prediction: Bengaluru had 1.83 xG and scored 2, Chennaiyin had 0.89 xG and scored none, indicating Bengaluru’s shots came from better positions (3 big chances vs 0).
- Ryan Williams (45 min, 1 shot) scored 1 goal from a 0.29 xG chance; Mihailo Perović (90 min, 4 shots) scored 1 goal from a 1.15 xG chance – both outperformed their expected contributions.
- Chennaiyin had 7 corners and 10 shots inside the box versus Bengaluru’s 3 corners and 6 inside‑box shots, yet Bengaluru’s overall xG (1.83) far exceeded Chennaiyin’s (0.89).
- Bengaluru’s win (2‑0) came with fewer shots than Chennaiyin (10 vs. 20), underscoring that the number of shots is less important than the quality of those chances.
