Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Auxerre 0-0 Nantes. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither Auxerre nor Nantes found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Nantes led Shots on target 0-4, even though the scoreboard went another way. Nantes also shaded Total shots 5-13.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Auxerre the favourite at 51.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
