Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Ajax 2-2 PSV. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Mika Godts 90+2', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Ajax led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Ajax also shaded Total shots 13-8.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Ajax the favourite at 40.8% implied probability. That market lean missed.
