Goals against chances

Golden Arrows0 from 1.15 xGless than the chances were worth
Kaizer Chiefs0 from 1.56 xGless than the chances were worth

Expected goals totals what the openings were worth, so the gap between it and the score is the finishing — and the luck. Under half a goal either way is called level: xG is an estimate and a smaller gap than that is inside its own error.
