Celtic had only 0.31 xG and you can see from the shot map below 5 of their 8 shots were from outside the box while 2 of those from inside the box were not necessarily from good positions. They were actually 0.03 and 0.01 chances.
Celtic's best chance was Maeda's from outside the box (furthest right below) which was a 0.07 chance and Maeda hit it well as it had a 0.37 Post Shot xG. Celtic's best xG and best Post Shot xG from this one chance.
Feyenoord took the lead on 45+2 minutes from a 0.03 chance from a free kick. Post Shot xG was only 0.22 as well. Feyenoord's 2nd goal was from a 0.19 chance and had a Post Shot xG of 0.47.
