Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Eintracht Braunschweig 1-1 Hertha BSC. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Max Marie 78', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Eintracht Braunschweig led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Eintracht Braunschweig also shaded Corners 8-2.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Hertha BSC the favourite at 45.9% implied probability. That market lean missed.
