Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Doncaster Rovers 1-1 Notts County. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Isaac Hutchinson put the first mark on the match 36', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Notts County led Shots on target 2-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Notts County also shaded Corners 4-6.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Doncaster Rovers the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
