Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was Celta de Vigo 1-1 Deportivo La Coruña. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Lucas Pérez 90+1', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Celta de Vigo led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Deportivo La Coruña also shaded Corners 4-10.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Celta de Vigo the favourite at 57.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
