Burnley 3-4 Brentford — xTears 20.39 (28/02/26)
Brentford won 3-4 against Burnley on 28 February 2026 during Matchday 28 of the Premier League, even with the xTears split tilting slightly the other way. Total damage: 20.39 xTears.
Even with the xTears split leaning slightly the other way, the heaviest moments for Brentford still ran through M. Damsgaard 9' goal (+1.41 xT) and M. Damsgaard 90' goal (+2.18 xT).
The scoreboard and xTears did not tell exactly the same story: Brentford punished better without fully owning the emotional volume. The knife twist arrived right at the death: late winner (M. Damsgaard at 90').
