Why it went this way

On the day the expected goals were 0.96 for Millwall and 2.93 for Norwich City.

Millwall scored about 2.0 more than their chances were worth: clinical finishing, or a goalkeeper having a bad day.

Millwall had 52% of the ball and turned it into the win.

A red card changed the shape of the match, and no pre-match model can see one coming.
