The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Qingdao Jonoon 1.83 xG and Hangzhou Greentown 1.28 xG, a combined 3.11. The scoreboard read 1-4 for 5 actual goals. Qingdao Jonoon fell 0.8 short of their projected output. Hangzhou Greentown outscored their 1.28 projection by 2.7. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Qingdao Jonoon attack 1.00 / defence 1.04 against Hangzhou Greentown attack 1.08 / defence 1.01, drawn from 32/32 games (Blended).
On the result, the model split it Qingdao Jonoon 50% | Draw 23% | Hangzhou Greentown 27%, with Qingdao Jonoon to win its most likely call at 50%. The actual Hangzhou Greentown win had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 3 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped. A comeback of the kind no pre-match model prices cleanly only underlines how much live momentum can override the numbers.
