Lambeth Tigers U11s — Match Reports

Junior Elite struck twice inside the first half hour and looked in control. Lambeth Tigers pulled one back just before the break and equalised with 10 minutes left to salvage a 2–2 draw, despite a wasteful night in front of goal (7% conversion from 27 attempts).

Pulled from Veo's Analysis Pack, which keeps a rolling baseline across matches — the most useful comparability tool here, since it's Veo doing the normalising rather than us guessing at it.

Veo doesn't calculate xG natively. The estimates below are built from each team's shot map using standard zone-based conversion rates (0.10 inside the box, 0.06 from the edge/D, 0.03 from outside), so treat them as indicative rather than a certified stat — they're here because they're the best available reading of shot quality, not shot luck.

Lambeth Tigers shot map — all attempts

Every green marker is one shot attempt. The gold marker is Jack's goal, added from memory since Veo didn't capture its location. Attacking direction: left → right.

Zone breakdown & estimated xG

Zone	Shots	xG/shot	Zone xG
Inside penalty box	9	0.10	0.90
Edge of box / D	7	0.06	0.42
Outside box (18yd+)	9	0.03	0.27

Box Edge Outside

Estimated xG ≈ 1.6 from open play, vs. 2 goals actually scored — Lambeth Tigers finished slightly above the expected rate, but the shot selection was heavily weighted toward low-percentage areas: two thirds of attempts came from the edge of the box or further out.

Junior Elite shot map — all attempts

Every green marker is one Junior Elite shot attempt, from Veo's defending-view shot map (shots faced by Lambeth Tigers).

Zone breakdown & estimated xG

Zone	Shots	xG/shot	Zone xG
Inside penalty box	5	0.10	0.50
Edge of box / D	5	0.06	0.30
Outside box (18yd+)	1	0.03	0.03

Box Edge Outside

Estimated xG ≈ 0.8 from 11 shots, vs. 2 goals actually scored — Junior Elite's chances were of similar quality to the Tigers' (roughly half inside the box), but they were considerably more clinical: 15% conversion and a goal tally well above their expected rate, against the Tigers' 7% conversion despite more than double the shot volume.

Four jersey numbers have been matched to named players. Distance and speed reflect on-pitch time, not full-match totals for subs. The remaining tagged numbers (#5, #10, #11, #13, #23) were dropped as false-positive detections — see the data quality note above. Raw totals aren't comparable across matches on their own since minutes played vary player to player — the per-90 columns are the ones to actually track over time.

*Jaden's shot at 34:56 was originally tagged as a goal by Veo, but took a deflection off a defender on the way in — scored here as an own goal rather than a Jaden finish (it still counts toward Lambeth Tigers' 2 team goals above and toward the "2 goals" in the xG comparison). On genuine chances, Jaden had 3 shots on target from open play without converting. Max covered the ball the most defensively (9 tackles) but didn't threaten in front of goal. Veo didn't capture Jack's goal location — it's plotted on the shot map above from memory, roughly between the penalty spot and the goal line, central. Dist/min, Spr./90 and HI/90 are calculated here (minutes-normalised) rather than pulled directly from Veo, so they can be compared safely across matches regardless of who played how long.
