Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Boreham Wood 2-2 Leyton Orient after extra time. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Charlie O'Connell 85', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Leyton Orient led Possession 40%-60%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Leyton Orient also shaded Total shots 10-14.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Leyton Orient the favourite at 63.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
