Postmatch editorial
Neither side managed to pull the match clear
The final score was Altrincham 2-2 Gateshead. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from M. Dinanga 71', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Gateshead led Shots on target 2-7, even though the scoreboard went another way. Gateshead also shaded Total shots 5-11.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Altrincham the favourite at 42.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
