Tottenham 2-1 Liverpool — xTears 24.66 (30/09/23)

Tottenham won 2-1 against Liverpool on 30 September 2023 during Matchday 7 of the Premier League, even with the xTears split tilting slightly the other way. Total damage: 24.66 xTears.

Even with the xTears split leaning slightly the other way, the heaviest moments for Tottenham still ran through J. Matip 90+6' own goal (+2.71 xT) and Son Heung-Min 36' goal (+1.41 xT).

The scoreboard and xTears did not tell exactly the same story: Tottenham punished better without fully owning the emotional volume. The knife twist arrived right at the death: late winner (J. Matip at 90+6'). The match lost its cool with 11 yellows and 2 reds. Diogo Jota eventually walked for a second booking.
