Postmatch editorial

The pre-match tension never quite broke

The final score was Celje 2-2 Egnatia Rrogozhinë 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 Geralb Smajli 114', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Celje led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Celje also shaded Total shots 7-4.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Celje the favourite at 62.9% implied probability. That market lean missed.
