Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Altrincham 2-2 Harborough Town. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Eliot Putman 90+9', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Altrincham led Total shots 16-8, even though the scoreboard went another way. Altrincham also shaded Corners 7-4.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Altrincham the favourite at 63.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
