Why it went this way
On the day the expected goals were 0.13 for Real Salt Lake and 3.57 for St. Louis City.
Real Salt Lake scored about 2.9 more than their chances were worth: clinical finishing, or a goalkeeper having a bad day.
St. Louis City left about 3.6 goals' worth of chances on the pitch.
St. Louis City created the better chances, 3.57 xG to 0.13, and still lost. On chances alone, the result could easily have gone the other way.

Real Salt Lake had 60% 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.
