70% possession and 11 shots summed up Morocco's night; the scoreboard read 1:1 regardless.
The headline is simple: Netherlands beat Tunisia 3-1, but the underlying case file says this was not a full-blown massacre. The Dutch posted 2.23 xG to Tunisia’s 1.24, a gap of 0.99. That is a clear superiority, yes, but not the kind of evidence that screams “three-goal separation in all but name.” The scoreline carries a little theatrical exaggeration — football’s usual witness tampering.
