Postmatch editorial
Neither side managed to pull the match clear
The final score was Alverca 1-1 Santa Clara. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Brenner 87', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Santa Clara led Shots on target 1-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Santa Clara also shaded Total shots 5-15.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Alverca the favourite at 41.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
