Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was Alashkert 1-1 Yelimay Semey. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Davit Terteryan 86', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Alashkert led Shots on target 2-1, even though the scoreboard went another way. Alashkert also shaded Corners 11-5.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Alashkert the favourite at 48.8% implied probability. That market lean missed.
