SEO Match Summary
Austria dominated Ghana 5–1 in a friendly international on 27 March, with the hosts' clinical finishing proving decisive in a one-sided contest. Operating in a 4–2–3–1 formation, Austria controlled proceedings through superior efficiency; despite registering just 11 shots, they converted seven on target from an expected goals tally of 1.81, demonstrating ruthless execution in the final third. Ghana, deployed in 4–4–2, offered minimal resistance, managing only five attempts with a single shot on target and accumulating just 0.53 xG. Austria's goalkeeper faced limited pressure, saving at a 28.57 per cent rate, though this reflected Ghana's toothless attacking play rather than any particular threat. Michael Gregoritsch registered among the scorers for the hosts in what proved a comprehensive victory. The gulf in quality between the sides was evident throughout, with Austria's structured approach and Ghana's defensive vulnerabilities creating an insurmountable gap. This result underscores Austria's attacking potency ahead of forthcoming competitive fixtures.

Goalkeeper Performance

Read it this way: PSxG conceded is how dangerous the shots on target were, Goals conceded is how many actually went in, Goals saved is the gap between the two (higher is better, a minus means he should have saved more), and Save % is the share of on-target shots kept out.
