Tamworth scores heaviest in the 76-90+ spell and concedes heaviest in 46-60; Worthing scores heaviest in 76-90+ and concedes heaviest in 76-90+. The shapes mesh: Tamworth's strongest scoring spell is exactly where Worthing is softest.
Tamworth: 49 league matches in the bank, 3 from this season and the rest from last season. Worthing: 3 league matches in the bank.
The question this step asks
Step three is GOALS, AND WHEN THEY COME. Not just how many each side scores and lets in, but the minute bands they come in, who lands the first blow, what each side does after falling behind, and who finds goals late. A side that concedes early and scores late reads very differently from one that does the opposite, at the same goal difference.
Side by side: Tamworth scores most in the 76-90+ band (16 of 68); Tamworth concedes most in the 46-60 band (20 of 80); Worthing scores most in the 76-90+ band (2 of 5); Worthing concedes most in the 76-90+ band (2 of 4). Who lands the first blow and who lands the last is the question this step exists to ask.
