Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the market favourite
The final score was Alcoyano 2-1 Huesca. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
The decisive turn arrived late when Moltó scored 85' for Alcoyano.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Huesca led Possession 34%-66%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Alcoyano also shaded Corners 5-3.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Huesca the favourite at 55.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
